How to zoom in farther in OpenTTD?

[Elcamo]

Is there a way for me to zoom in farther than the normal zoom? (I've zoomed in the whole way, and I would like to get even closer)

Thanks,
Cam

Yes, there are several options.
The first is the best, but you will need to use the Extra Zoom Levels patch. While this is deesigned for 32bpp graphics, you can choose not to install tars, however, the graphics will of course be pixellated if you move closer. It has the advantage of simplicity to use (just zoom in further) and retention of the original zoom level.
Of course, there are other alternatives if you can't or don't want to install a patch. Set OpenTTD to fullscreen, and change the resolution to something lower than your screen. (This unfortunately makes the whole thing a bit blurry)
Or you could use Windows Magnifier (assuming you use Windows) to magnify it, although this makes the controls cumbersome because the window follows the mouse around. (There are probably better magnifier programs around)
