Using scroll wheel to control Spyglass FOV

I noticed some players kind of 'abuse' with the zoom by lowering their FOV in the game settings and get even more zoom.

People will use this because it makes the spyglass even more useful, so why not making it an intended thing by allowing you to control the zoom percentage with your scroll wheel?

This way you won't need to go to game settings to get a stronger zoom.

I also think the zoom should be independent from your in-game FOV.

    that is actually a cool idea! but i think that aditional zoom wouldnt be THAT useful! therefor i would reccomend to using this, to zoom out with the spyglass. maybe add a little bit of additional zoom but not to much

    This would be cool, except for mobile and xbox players who don't have a mouse, so for them, you could make it a slider, like in the settings for FOV, but on screen, inside the blocked screen area. maybe even make a box where you can type in a certain value.

    I would really like this maybe if the image is to far away (if you zoom a lot) it would become difuse and you will have to focus so people will master the art of focusing and using the spyglass

    Yes, the idea is that you can also use this to get less zoom if you think the default zoom is too much.

    Mobile players could use the 'expand' gesture, using two fingers to control their zoom. As for controller players, well I'm not sure, maybe they could use the left/right stick buttons? (L3, R3)
