    Currently we use the left button to aim and the right button to shoot. We don't use the middle mouse button for anything, and that's where this idea kicks in. My suggestion: When you click it it (whilst ADS) it will zoom in even further by giving you slowness 3 instead of slowness 1. If you toggled the enhanced zoom, then it will remain in that state (still slowness 3 every time you zoom in) until you click it again of course. This would only work for sniper rifles in my opinion. If this gets added, i'll use it for another function in my upcoming thread.

    Impossibru I'm pretty sure.
    @GreySwordz @BrawlerAce_ confirm me on this? I'm not positive, but it seems unlikely.
    The middle button is used to switch items, too.

    Gynamo, what about the people that use laptops? Is there any way to zoom in using those? I like this idea, its kind of like Optifine and zoom!

    I like this but one thing, some people use that button to scroll from item to item, although we both may not, others might.

    I like this idea +1
    My laptop has a scroll, it's fine, never knew they made laptops like that though.

    I mean when you press it down, not roll it. And i do think it's possible since left click is what hits things, right click uses items in your hand, and middle click will select the block that you are aiming at in your hotbar, aslong as you have it. Since you don't have blocks in your inventory, and that it does not switch to air blocks then i think this should be possible.

    Ok, I don't think that will work without a client, as pressing down that button in normal Minecraft does not send any packets of information to the server. Basically, we couldn't make the 'Reload' key 'R', because it does not send any packets of information to the server in default Minecraft.

    As i just said, it does indeed send packets. If you aim at a block it will make you hover over it in your hotbar if you have the item. I also think it checks your gamemode since it gives you the block if you are in creative.

    Oh, I didn't understand what you were saying there, as I wasn't aware of that.
    In that case, it should work if the coders aren't lazy and stuff c:

    I knew it would be impossibru in some way :v
    Anyway, if you want to zoom more just use phanta's client.

    Even if this was possible, people using the Mac Magic Mouse (me ;-; ) couldn't do it.
    Also, like tdaddy said, phanta has this available in his client

    If you have your drop key set to R, then yes it will, as long as it sends packets of information to the server.

    The only problem is that some people don't have a middle click

    And it's impossible c:
    You see, there is no way you can zoom in further than you can already without a mod.

    Slowness decreases your fov which zooms in your vision. A higher slowness factor means higher zoom.

    This would probably only be possible with mods, there are no real controls binded to the middle wheel.

    There is, if you click the middle scroll in creative it will give you the block you clicked, and in survival it will go to teh block if you have it in your inventory.
    BrawlerAce told me it wasn't possible, and to have higher zooms you would literally not be able to move.
    Sorry, but I would have to trust Brawler more than you because he's more into the coding stuff :v

    Well you can still increase zoom. It wouldn't be fun because the slowness would be so high, but the zoom factor would go up. Your fov keeps increasing until you reach slowness 6, but you can't move.
