Improved Zoom – Player Controlled Zoom System (Achievement Friendly)
Improved Zoom is a lightweight and easy-to-use Minecraft Bedrock add-on that gives every player their own customizable zoom experience. Designed to feel smooth and natural, this add-on lets players control how strong their zoom is, whether they want night vision enabled, and adjust everything directly in-game.

Description
**How It Works**
Players can activate zoom by performing a simple input:
* Crouch 3 times and hold sneak
* While sneaking, the zoom activates instantly
* Stand up to exit zoom immediately
The zoom effect smoothly applies while sneaking and automatically clears when the player stops, making it intuitive and easy to control during gameplay.
---
**Custom Zoom Settings Menu**
Each player has their own personal zoom settings.
To open the menu:
* Hold the Zoom Settings item
* Crouch (sneak)
* Use the item
This opens a simple menu where you can:
* Choose between Low, Medium, or High zoom
* Toggle Night Vision on or off
---
**Live Updating While Zoomed**
One of the best features:
* You can open the menu while already zoomed in
* Changing your zoom level or night vision will update instantly on screen
* No need to stop zooming or reset anything
This makes adjusting your view fast and seamless.
---
**Per-Player Settings**
* Each player has their own saved zoom level
* Each player has their own night vision preference
* Settings are stored and remembered automatically
---
**Getting the Zoom Settings Item**
* Players automatically receive the Zoom Settings item when they join the world
* The item is set to keep on death, so it will not be lost
If the item is ever lost, it can be crafted:
Crafting Recipe
* 1 Amethyst Shard
* 2 Iron Ingots
