Is there a way to select a group of vehicles in line/garage?

[Capitán Alatriste]

Basically is there a way to "Shift + click" to select a specified amount of vehicles instead of having to click individually every single one? If not this is sorely needed in game.

Yes,

Left click on the open round shapes before your vehicles in the garage (or via 'maintenance vehicle'). In this way you can make a selection of some (or all) of your vehicles. The round shape above is used to select/deselect all vehicles).

All the actions you do after that apply to all the marked vehicles. (So be aware that you also can 'delete' (sell) all or a lot of your vehicles with one click).

I am aware of the ability to select and deselect all vehicles on the list. However that is not what I am concerned with. Say I have 50 vehicles in the garage but I want to select half of them, there is no other way to do so other than having to click on all 25 vehicles individually. I was wondering if there was a way to shift left click to select them instead as is standard.

You can. Control key add vehicles to the group of already selected vehicles. Shift key allow you to select all vehicles between the last select and the new one clicked.

There is a lack of common keyboard commands every user is used to from the operating system and a lot of software, but at least CTRL+C and CTRL+V work in edit fields - which was not the case from the beginning.

It is all of them - topmost circle button - or clicking individually on each one to add vehicles to your selection.

You cannot select an arbitrary number of them at the very same time, unless you choose all of them.

Well that sucks, they really should implement a standard shift click system to select a set amount out of a group.

But you can do it already. Click a vehicle, hold Shift key, click the last one you want to select, done, all vehicles between the 2 extremes will be selected.

More filters are needed.
When game ist paused, open the vehicle manager for a specific line and now select all vehicles without cargo/passengers.
You have to click each one manually and check.
There is no filter "autoselect all empty vehicles".

I was going to suggest it during the beta but them I forgot.

It's a very annoying information that is missing in that window. Especially for me, that after upgrading vehicles in a line, don't delete the old vehicles until they unload.

Not true. On Windows that is.

Yep! Doesn't work for me either, in Win 7.

[Blackdragonbird]

Strange, I'm using windows 10 and it works for me.

Another bug?

[GordonDry]

I got Windows 10.
I assume that any™ settings.lua setting could be the trigger for that functionality not working. Just an intuition.

[Blackdragonbird]

Maybe. The only 'tweaks' I did in my settings.lua are the experimental map sizes and the experimental bridge/tunnel height toggles.

Considering that the game can't detect correctly audio devices change if the game is open, can't correctly detect custom resolutions created in nVidia control panel, it will not be a surprise that something can mess with the detection of these shift+click and ctrl+click key combinations.

Do you guys have any software that control the keyboard and or mouse key commands? Like a macro recorder, profile manager or anything that can capture a key press and change what it send to another software?
