Can you make the option of a zoom in/out option for the map like Templar Assault? Maybe have such an option being able to be turned on/off at the opions menu, so those who don't want it can leave it off and those who do want it can turn it on?

The map engine in Star Traders isn't currently capable of this because it is an earlier generation than the TA and CK map engines.
I may someday figure out how to add zooming to the old engine, but at this point the Zoom Map toggle is the only way to get a wider view of the map. We're always working (today's release included!) to make the performance in Zoom Map better.
I understand it isn't as optimal for some uses, but the ST RPG Zoom map does have some advantages in that it not only zooms out but loads a bunch of additional data that isn't loaded in the core map engine (for performance reasons on the lower end of the 2,264 devices.)
So while we cannot do a smooth zoom in/out feature in ST, we do have a really functional Zoom Map that shows Factions, Rumors, Contracts, etc

How about a simple option at he options menu of making the ST map a certain amount smaller.So you can choose whether to make map size 75%, 50%, 25%, 125%, 150%, etc on the options menu. Is that possible?
