Alternate mouse button assignment

[gerard_]

Currently mouse buttons are like this:

Left button:
- Select
- Build
- Move

Right button:
- Deselect
- Unit settings (retreat when wounded etc)

What I would like to have is more Warcraft 3 like:

Left button:
- Select
- Deselect

Right button:
- Build
- Move
- Unit settings

So deselect moves to the left button and build and move move to the right button.
This way you can't accidentally deselect your units.

Are there any problems with the proposed layout? Please note that I don't want to replace the current settings,
I would just like to be able to select the different scheme from the menu.

yes,the current mouse functionality is sort of uncomfortable,similiar to old CnC and TA but it's somewhat weird,though I am unable to tell why it's weird.

adding a option 'right mouse interface' to switch between 'classic' and 'new' mouse button functions would be cool.

Another useful addition is to make 'double click' on unit to select all units of a type/template within current 'screen',there is a hotkey combo ctrl+z? to do that,but you'll have to select a unit first to use it,it's a bit uncomfortable imo.

We had such a feature in original WZ, no idea what happened to it.

it's because doubleclick mouse event was unfinished and was on TODO list in input.c...
I just re-added doubleclick mouse event,so it'll be back really soon.

Just send a message to warzone-dev with input patch attached.
I was too lazy to enter the name,so my name becomes 'zz zz' in mailinglist and hotmail added some craps to the attachement,dont know why.Sorry about that...
