Multi-Select

Probably some other issues as well, I haven't bothered updating this after the game added multi-select. I don't know if this will get an update or just removed.

(for me at least) This mod prevents RC Transports from queuing up load/unload commands.

v0.2
Double Shift-Click a unit to select all units of the same class in the last used radius.
Shift-Click a unit to add/remove that unit from the selection.

I haven't updated this mod yet.

BTW while we are "brainstorming" ive got a few ideas which might be crazy but heres one:

a feature id like to have (which kind of connects to the pin panel thing) is that besides the highlighting option how about selecting units directly from the pin buttons?
(multiple via shift and adding/removing units) so that might be a long term solution?

Well i tried to doubleclick units but what happens is that at the first click nothing happens and at the second click the unit pointed at is selected as long as the second "click" is held down if you lift the finger after the second click it gets deselected

also tried double clicking with dragging mouse while the second "click" is held down which also did nothing

the button idea definetely would be a step forward tho

what might be something to consider (although prob low priority due to persumably big hassle) is a menu inddicator of the selected units

usually games with multicommand capabilities have a interface for that function and i guess integrating a "unit menu" into sm might be a pita
but i noticed that if you have multiple rovers selected and many of them pinned atleast one of them is getting "highlighted"
now is there a way to utilize the inbuilt "unitpanel" by allowing multiple units to be "highlighted" simultaniously?
that might bypass the need of a unitpanel entirely

I could add a hud button to toggle between drones/rovers/colonists/all?

I was trying to add a double click to select all visible units of the same class, but no luck best I could do is a dbl click to select all of same class in a radius, maybe right-click the hud button to set the radius?.

OK so here are a few things i noticed:

first off its a circular dragging field which is great

you can not select via clicking

you can select a group of units and then add other units
BUT! a few of the previously selected units get deselected and at the moment i dont see a pattern how its deciding which are getting deselected

you can select a group of units and click on a single unit of those to unselect it and a few others also get unselected which again seems rather random which are unselected

if you have a group of 6 and deselect by clicking one unit 2 others are also getting deselected and if you then deselect one of the remaining 3 only one will be selected
which brings me to the conclusion that whenever you deselect a unit from all units that have been selected(including the soon unselected) half of the group gets ejected (rounding down considering the 3 becomes 1 situation)

besides that selecting a group of rovers works well if no drone snuggles between them :D

1. yep
2. maybe?
3. see 2

First question: can you select drones and rovers simultaniously?
Second: is it possible to not only select via mouse drag but also via clicking?
Third: also to "de-select" either by clicking or/and dragging?

Regardless of anything above this ladies and gentlemen is a tool of power
A tool of control
one might even say a weapon to surpass metal gear

and all i can say is yes!

You have done it again ChoGGi!
good job mate! :D
