Players hand

[Malice]

While playing I notice that the location of the hand is often very hard to use. If I need to move around the board or zoom in, then I need to zoom out to look at my hand.

Is there a way to put my hand visible a the bottom of the screen, no matter where I am looking or scrolling? This would be SOOOO useful.

Not really, but there is the ability to save/load camera states to switch between views. To save the camera's view to a hotkey, position the camera where you want it (i.e. viewing your hand) and while holding 'ctrl' press a number key. After that, you can press 'alt' and that number to return to that camera's position.

If you save the current camera view to a different hotkey before changing to your hand's camera, you can switch back and forth rather easily.

Space brings you back in standard camera view aka after choossing color. Full view of the board with you hand at the bottom centre.

Yeah, I know both of these option; and they don't work for this situation.

So the game was a card laying game, where the cards are square. There was quite a bit of detail on each card so we needed to zoom into the board and then out again. There is hotkeys for all of this, but it would be sooooo nice to be able to have my cards always visible.

Tapletop simulator is awesome, but something like this would be so nice:

Zunztu had its issues but its card managament at the bottom of the screen was amazing.

Silly thought.
Zoom the camera to a decent board view then try a hidden zone with the cards lifted up higher and held in position somehow.

Can you use Alt zoom for the cards on the table instead of zooming in with the camera? That way your hand is always on screen, which you can view by hovering over each card and pressing Alt, and still access anywhere else on the table.

Otherwise you'd have to make a new hand zone in a more convenient spot, if possible.

I'd prefer the option to have a hand overlay as well, along with the option to disable the "default view" since I end up having to rotate the camera every single time I join a game because I don't want to see everything upside down.
