Mouse scroll wheel zoom is messed up
When I was in the main editor mode, I did something with pressing the middle mouse button (scroll wheel) and then scrolling. This changed how much I would zoom in/out with each roll of the scroll wheel. Now, I can barely zoom in or out at all, and the view distance in the editor is shortened considerably. I have provided a screenshot of it looks like.

Zoom sensitivity is based on the currently selected object. Try selecting a different object in the scene. If you would like to zoom in directly on an object, you can use the shortcut key 'F'.
Edit: You can also hold down the right mouse button and use W/A/S/D/Q/E and the mouse to navigate the camera as an alternative for using the scrollwheel.
Thanks! Is it normal that as I zoom into the problem area, it gets harder to zoom in (i.e. more rotations of the scroll wheel to zoom in)? I didn't have that problem with the zoom before the problem developed.
Also, is there a way to reset mouse controls to default? Restarting the program didn't solve it.
Thanks for the edit. It works pretty well aside from that it has to pick up momentum every time I start using it.
You don't have some sort of fancy mouse with special features of any kind do you?
