If I want to scroll, I will

[Phyllo]

I have a favourite view of my still small city where I can see everything at a glance. All coin and passenger producing buildings as well as the runways. Therefore, I do not wish to be scrolled through my city any time I accept a guest plane and certainly not when I accidentally click on land again since I don't plan to buy any currently. Even if I would want to buy some, I'd know exactly which one and I would not need to be scrolled there to make sure.
So I'd want an option to deactivate the forced scrolling.
As as sidenote, I also think that the dialogs could simply pop up and don't need to slide in. This only takes time and resources, so deactivating this could make the game easier to play on slower devices and I would simply prefer it also on my computer.

Don't forget when Duke visits with his airship. All game play stops as he slooowly drifts across the screen... so annoying.

On the other hand, I like the guest plane scroll after your city grows. It's a quick way to get back to the runways.

Indeed, forgot about that but it should be able to turn that off as well.

That's exactly why I suggest to make the changes I would like to see optional so that every user can keep playing as he did now without even bothering to find out where the settings might be hidden and those who want to turn things off can do that.
Whenever I implement new features in our software, I do the same thing. After an update, anything works as before but you may have an option to tweak something that you may find useful. If you don't find it, nothing crashes or even changes at all.

For the duke, if you leave the 'mast' with no roads then the graphic doesn't happen. You only get his head and you can add the road while you need him.

Yeah, I do this when ghost duke arrives.

I wouldnt mind getting rid of the scroll/slide but it doesnt bother me too much to be honest as I usually want to go to the guest plane or whatever it is anyway.

What does bother me is the reset of my zoom when I do something like visit neighbors since the last update or 2. That one is really annoying.

This guest planes trick is good for Map flights.
Tapping passengers, with dolls, need about 5600 passengers than tap guest plane.
Tadaaaaa...... your runways.......
You are a good observer DF.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think I've seen Ghost Duke since the upgrade?

It does not just reset the zoom, it also switches from grid view to full view while it still thinks it is in grid view since it shows the X on the grid view to turn it off:

I think GI developer has already improved a little bit,
in the past the building "behind" the airship is even not able to be clicked! The problem existed for ages and just solved
