Switch Better Switch Screenshots

My wife and I have been playing the game on our Switch's. We love it. Lots of hours. We're making our farms look nice, but unfortunately the Switch's screenshot button isn't very high-res.

However, if I open the console on the Switch and type "/mapscreenshot image01 25" it yields a better result, but cropped. Any values outside of 25% give wonky results/crashes

I'm just wondering is there are any additional parameters to the /mapscreenshot command? Or maybe what are the chances of the Switch port team improving this feature? Lastly, I know it's been discussed on this forum before... but I also can't take any viable night-time screenshots because of the way the screenshot render stiches it together:

The night screenshot issue definitely seems to be a bug. Unfortunately my understanding is that these map screenshots are limited by the resolution of the Switch (1280x720) and the farm images can't be any higher resolution than that.

The pains of being on the switch. We can play anywhere but our resolution tanks.

If @galurie is correct, then setting your zoom level to 100% should fix the issue (as shared in this thread).

I'm writing this post while waiting for it to become nighttime, will edit with details!

I couldn't reproduce it just now, although it has affected me in the past with identical settings. Weird.
