can not zoom in all the way
can´t really find a way to zoom in all the way. Sometimes it works fine (I can zoom in all the way) but other times it only lets me zoom in to a certain altitude and then I have to tilt but when I switch back the Earth in front view it throws me back to high above the ground. Anyone else experiencing the same "issue"? Sorry about my English, not a native speaker.

yes, I had also some issues with this. Also for instance using search, and flying to san francisco in tilt earth mode shows the arrow in the distance, but when I tilt back in the other mode, I am way off the correct position.

thanks for the comment. hopfully these bugs (if they are such) will get fix sooner or later when more people point it out. Despite that GE is awesome

yeah, really love google earth vr - one of the best things in VR right now. Sadly they changed the control scheme a bit - hopfully they will adjust that in a new release.

Thanks for the feedback! There's currently an issue where if you have the planet below you and are fairly small, then tilt the planet in front of you, it will move the planet very far away below you while scaling you before tilting. This results in the planet being very far away in front of you. It can feel like you're not being allowed to zoom in all the way, but you're at the maximum zoom already, the planet is just really far away.

Like you noticed, if you tilt back and forth, when the planet comes up the next time, it won't do the scale change and the planet won't be pushed really far away.

Hey Matt, thanks for the reply. Any chance you bringing back the trigger brake button in the next release? I am really missing it. :)

Maybe just just the left trigger to brake, the right to speed up, than you won't need to change the new scheme, just add the left trigger button.

Thanks.
