📋 About This Mod
Initialy there to show a very close point of interest, the scanning effect that throws the player's view into the air to follow a giant scan wave doesn't show anything but the wave anymore, wasting player time for just a new point of interest.
So this mod replaces this effect with a simple look up toward the newly discovered point of interest, in order to know where to look at but without wasting our time.
I want to credit Penitence for his Aerial Camera Zoom Reduction mod. His mod was completely removing the effect but was a great base for my experiments to finaly get the result I wanted to achieve since quite some time.
New in v3. 0 : updated for 6. 44 game version and fixes missing crates and bottom half of the antenna.
