Magnifying Glass additional usage: Let's you zoom into the environment

[desertedone]

Magnifying glasses are used for starting fires but I thought it would be interesting to have a bonus feature of using it by allowing you to zoom and magnify the environment to see some out of the way objects lying around. You know for it's real purpose.

If you are searching ants down at your feet then you got a tool for that, but in longer distances you need binoculars which have multiple lenses to be able to see far away.

This might work for close range distances, yes, perhaps you could find a bullet laying around or even an easter egg! 😂

Actually that's not a bad idea for Story mode.  I honestly don't see any practical functionality for this in Survivor mode.  But say in Story mode you need to read some old microfiche film or something to advance the plot, and need to find a mag lens in order to make out the text.
