Question zoom out to view ENTIRE world with all map modes

hey everyone, new to eu generally but iv ordered a copy cause the demo looks really good. i was wondering if there was a way to zoom ALL the way out and view the entire world in the main interface as opposed to just the minimap. then one could see the whole world in political map mode etc. and gain a more strategic feel to the world situation. could this (from what i think) fairly simple feature be worked into a mod or even into the expansion due for release soon?

You cant zoom out to see the entire world. That is something I miss aswell. But I dont know if there is any mods that could help you with that, I cant come up with one

Perhaps then a mod or something could be made for the minimap that would show a political etc. view that would change along with the main interface when selecting the viewmodes?

That would be a lot of colour in one small Minimap.

Not really, if one were to enlarge the minmap slightly, it would be like in RTW or M2TW. However though, with the HRE in the map your right.

So, if that cant be done, surely adding an additional zoom level isn't that hard.....

Gentlemen, prepare to charge!


Maybe you will get it in any patch for the addon, but really, I doubt that. There are way more gliches and bugs to be fixed...
