[0.75] [Suggestion] Implement Shift-Click

from Elemental Forums


There are some occasions where I would like to use shift-click to mark all things from a starting point to an end point  in

1) Moving units out off cities

2) Selling stuff to the shop (wolf skin, poiosn sacks, etc.)

3) Trading things

EDIT: Ctrl-Click already works with units, so it might be working in shops/trade, but shift-click (like windows everything between 2 marks) would be nice

Ehm right now I'm not 100% sure but I user either ctrl or shift click for selecting multiple units of an army all the time - for moving them out of cities etc. That works and already worked in WOM - at least for me.

Oh, you're right. Ctrl-Click works - how could I miss that.

Shift does work, but it causes a bug where the cursor drags slowly while you're holding it, pretty annoying.

There's also no way to select all that I can see, which makes moving units out of cities a pain, since the V eject key seems to eject them on a random square, which on a big city can be really annoying.

I'd prefer to have shift-click let you select from select to clicked, and ctrl select/deselect one at a time, but anything would be an improvement over the way it is now.
