This is mainly for laptop players.
It appears that the client detects the presence of a hardware mouse wheel on startup, and if one is not present at launch, the zoom will not work - even if you add a physical wheel after startup.
To elaborate:
Scenario 1:
Start client with no physical mouse - touchpad only with standard 2-finger zoom. Zoom will not work, even though it does work in other apps.
Connect physical mouse; mouse works, but scroll wheel does not.
Scenario 2:
Start client with physical mouse connected. Physical scroll wheel works, and so does 2-finger zoom on touchpad.
Remove physical mouse; 2-finger zoom on touchpad still works.
Suggestion:
It appears the code disables zoom altogether if a physical wheel is not detected on launch. Please remove this code so that virtual zoom is always supported.
