Was backing up files off the drive from the PC where Windows 10 wouldn't boot anymore before I wipe it. It said it was gonna take 4 more hours So I started a download for Unreal Engine 5.6 to run in the mean time then I went to take a nap with my buddy.

Working on a different feature enabled easy Zoom controls for the Retro Camera system. This will be used for debug mainly, and may not have any in game uses for this project. But it can be used for future projects. #MegaMan #UnrealEngine
