Before creating

  • This is NOT a gameplay feature from Civ VI, BNW, or outside - see Roadmap
  • This is NOT a gameplay feature from Vanilla Civ V or from G&K - If so, it should be a comment in Missing features from Civ V - G&K #4697

Problem Description

When in city screen it's common to zoom in or out for desired city overview, e.g. with mouse wheel.
However when cycling to next or previous city the city screen zoom level is reset to game default zoom.

In large empire when cycling 10's of cities one has to zoom in/out in each city to desired level over and over again which is tedious.

Desired Solution

When a player is in city screen and sets certain zoom level, then that same zoom level is retained for as long as cycling to next or previous city, that is, for as long as player is in city screen.

Only when the player stops cycling cities, that is, exits the city screen at some point then the zoom level is reset to game default.

Alternative Approaches

Not sure about any alternatives, but since it's required to specify an alternative I can only think of a zoom slider in city screen or somewhere else, e.g. in game options.

The slider would make this better configurable and would persist across several games however it's likely not very intuitive for a gameplay feature to have client wide configuration since it would affect all games.

Additional Context

The following screenshot shows game default zoom level:

Next we zoom in for closer look, however cycling to the next/previous city (red arrows) will reset zoom to default in the next city:

Fair enough, should be pretty simple
