Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
My maps are constituted of 512x512 tiles. Zooming to 1% is not enough to have a clear view of the whole map. It would be nice if it could be even smaller or even infinite.

Research direction

Start by locating the map editor's zoom controls and the code enforcing the current 1% minimum. Check how zooming and map rendering behave below that limit, then verify that maps made from 512x512 tiles can be viewed at a smaller or effectively unrestricted zoom without breaking editor navigation.
