Zandronum Console Variables
Updated to: Zandronum 1.1.1 - Revision: 130718-2050
Command Description
AutoAim

AutoAim 35

When the integer is greater than zero, this changes the precision of AutoAim. This feature that was also included in both Doom and Doom2, allows the players to use AutoAim for horizontal purposes. While before, the Doom engine did not allow players to view angles in a horizontal sense. As ZDoom does allow this behavior in the software renderer, but the software renderer does not allow the players to view at extreme angles as opposed to GZDoom's OpenGL renderer.
integer Degrees Name
0 Never
0.25 .25° Very Low
0.5 .50° Low
1. Medium
2. High
3. Very High
35 - 56 35° - 56° Always
  • Note: Floating integers are also acceptable; 0-5000
