Observer Camera [Reworked]

Description
Original creator of this mod is gcc.
I just updated it and added a few more options.
Here are the links to the original creator's Bilingual and English versions of the mod:

Bilingual: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1579421388

English: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1596632143

Controls (These are the default controls, but they're also customizable.):
  • Press F9 to switch among the default, aerial, or vertical view modes.
  • Press F10 to hide/show the game HUD.
  • Press F11 to hide/show your character.
  • Press O to focus the camera on the entity that's under the mouse.
  • Press P to focus the camera on the position that's under the mouse.
  • Press R to switch the focus of the camera between your character and the recently selected entity/position.
  • Press Up (Change by +20/-20), Down (Set to maximum/minimum value), Left (Change by +5/-5), or Right (Change by +1/-1) arrows to modify the FOV of the camera (From -175 to 175, default value is 35).
  • Press RightControl to reset the FOV of the camera.
  • Press LeftControl to use the FOV Modifier Key which triggers alternate functions when used with the FOV keys.

The original controls added by this mod have been moved to a category called Classic Keys. To use them, disable the FOV Modifier Key in the configs.

Classic Keys Controls (These are the default controls, but they're also customizable.):
  • Press Up (Change by +5), Down (Change by -5), Left (Change by -1), Right (Change by +1) arrows, and 0 (Change by +20), Period (Change by -20), 1 (Set to maximum value), and 2 (Set to minimum value) Numpad keys to modify the FOV of the camera (From -175 to 175, default value is 35).

All ownership of the Aerial View mod goes to its original author, which you can find here:

The original reason I updated this mod, was to have only the "focus camera on position/entities" feature without having conflicts with a camera mod I'm using. For a more whole experience, use this mod alongside Camera Tweaks (or any updated version of the mod, the original is supposedly “dead” at the time of typing this):

I'll look into seeing if I can fix that, thanks!

I know it's admittedly not inherent to Observer Cam, but it seems like it acts funny with Island Adventures volcano. If you exit the volcano, the camera won't zoom out properly, and as you go away from it the camera glitches with massively zooming in to the point you can't see anything and need to change the mode in order to "fix" the camera. Wondering if there is a way to prevent that from occurring, since it only cropped up a few days ago (beforehand, it wouldn't zoom out at all, but it also wouldn't cause a massive zoom in)

If for some reason you'd want to immediately go to maximum/minimum FOV, then you can press the down arrow key (by default) and adjust from there using the other three keys if you wish. If you don't want to use that key, you can set it to Disabled and optionally put one of the other keys in its place; it's your choice what you do in the configs, really. I recommend using Convenient Configs as well if you want to swap between the hotkey options in the config swiftly.

is that why when i press down it suddenly goes to 175?????? :steamsad:

I wanted to compact the controls a bit so I added another key to group those controls together. When you hold the FOV Modifier Key down it allows you to zoom in instead. I will look into having both as an option though. EDIT: I have made it so you can use the original controls of this mod if you disable the FOV Modifier key.

Please revert the control changes so that we can zoom out instead of only being able to go to max zoom. This is unplayable.

It should be fixed now. Let me know if anymore issues come up.

I'll see what I can do.

I disabled the camera focus hotkeys in config but now the f key focuses on my mouse

I think when I press the F key (and WASD) the camera focuses on something else which is horrible. the F key is not bound to anything, just F9 and F10 are bound
