Summary0012228: Add an option to prevent automatic camera movement
DescriptionI am playing on a laptop and find myself zooming the viewport quite a lot to make sense of my surroundings and enjoy at least some of the beautiful pixels the game has to offer ; ).
Also I am constantly positioning the viewport using the mouse or cursor keys due to the small amount of screen space available to keep everything in view.

The problem is: Every time I move using WASD the camera adjusts and reverts the positioning I just did using the cursor keys, making my view constantly wobble between what I selected and whatever change is induced by movement.

Not sure how feasible this is, but: Any chance make the automatic camera adjustment an option that can be disabled? i think this would be a great improvement for players with less screen estate (I can see this is likely not much of an issue if playing on a proper screen).

For 0.922:

* Added a "Prevent Automatic Camera Movement" toggle to the Extras tab of the Settings window:
** Useful if you have a small screen and need to tweak your camera position a lot, this toggle suppresses the recentering that happens when you move your exo around.

Thanks :)
