Mobile: Display zooms in whenever you use arrows to move between factories

Game version: 1.91.0-9a3cac6-256 (us 1.92)
Game world: Elcysandir
Browser + version: N/A
Flash Player version: N/A
Operating System: iOS
Screen resolution: N/A
Account name: bethmo

Reproducibility: 5/5 (1/5 = happened once; 2/5 = happens randomly; 3/5 = happens sometimes; 4/5 = happens often, but not always; 5/5 = happens always)

Current situation:
Using the arrow keys to move between factories moves the display to center on the new factory, but also changes the zoom to maximum. It has been this way since the feature was released, and it becomes more and more aggravating the bigger my city gets -- especially during an event where there are buildings I'm trying not to click!

Expected situation:
Expect the program to respect the player's choice of zoom level and stop changing it arbitrarily.

Reproduction Steps
1.
Have a large, high-chapter city with several empty factories of one type.
2. Pinch screen to un-zoom.
3. Click on a factory.
4. Set production, using the arrow on side of popup to move between factories.
5. Close the popup. Observe that you're zoomed in to maximum. Mutter obscenities as you try to find a safe spot to pinch the screen to un-zoom again.

No, no, no, no, NO! I can't stand having the zoom manipulated without my permission! I feel distinctly claustrophobic when that happens and I feel your pain vicariously. FIX IT, INNO.

There are days I wish it wouldn't change the zoom, but in general it doesn't bother me. I'm in favour of stopping the auto-zoom, but for me it's a pretty low priority vs. plenty of other issues,

Certainly. There's also somewhat of a workaround now that you can hit the back button to back out; you won't get zoomed, but then you can't take advantage of the left/right arrows. And still sometimes I'd rather just back out and hit them the old way if there's not too many of them.
