Description
When this mod is running, the camera's ability to zoom seems to be completely relaxed, to the point that you can no longer inspect those job progress bars that show up under pawns when you are normally zoomed in.
Here's a pawn with said progress bar when the mod isn't running; the game is fully zoomed in:
Here's the same pawn doing the same job, but the mod is running. No matter how far I zoom in (which is way farther than anyone should ever need frankly), I can't get the progress bar to show up:
If this behavior is intended and documented, I can't find it.
Obviously, I could turn this mod off every time I want to manually test the game, and turn it back on again every time I want to let the AI test the game, but that'll get old fast. It feels weird to me that a mod meant to give the game AI access also messes with game mechanics like the way the camera works.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the camera zoom behavior with RimBridgeServer enabled and disabled, comparing whether pawn job progress bars remain visible at the same zoom level. Review the mod's camera-related behavior and determine whether the altered zoom is intended; done means the camera no longer causes this discrepancy or the behavior is clearly documented.
