I'm curious how this interacts with Zoom To World. Can I only reach things on my normal view? (I'm hoping so, actually. And can't be home to test it for a few hours.)

This mod sets all ranges to 10k (view-able in the data.lua file). I haven't personally tested how it works with Zoom to World, but I'm quite sure the numbers in the data.lua file can be increased to work at whatever range you want, if they don't work already.

You cannot open any GUIs but you can ctrl-click to put items from your cursor into inventories or take them out. Not sure what the range on it is, but definitely pretty far off screen from what I have tested.

Also just now found out. I had a transport belt on my cursor when i opened the map. When i zoomed in to the world view and tried to click-drag to move the map, it started placing the belts down
