DisableAimFOV

A BepInEx mod for MycoPunk that removes FOV zoom changes when aiming to reduce claustrophobia.

Description

This client-side mod eliminates the field of view (FOV) zoom that occurs when aiming weapons in MycoPunk. Many players experience discomfort or claustrophobia from the narrowing of the field of view during aiming, and this mod maintains the default FOV at all times, creating a more comfortable and less disorienting gameplay experience.

The mod uses Harmony to patch the PlayerLook aiming system methods (UpdateAiming and UpdateCameraFOV), replacing the aiming FOV transitions with static default FOV values. This creates smooth aiming without the jarring zoom effects.

• Configuration not working? Ensure you restart the game after changing BepInEx config settings
