Click and Drag or Two Clicks
I had a quick question about the UI. Watching some videos, it looks like a lot of stuff is click and drag. Can this stuff be done with two clicks instead, where you just click on the first thing and then the target? I have trouble holding down the mouse button while moving the mouse, so I was curious before buying.

Right now it’s click and drag. We have gotten requests for allowing a different interaction and will consider it.

Thanks for the quick reply. I'll just keep it on my wishlist for now, then, and hope for the best. The game looks great, by the way.

As long as drag and drop remains i'm ok :D I was complaining about too much click click.

I'd definitely like to see clicking added as an option.

The drag and drop is actually more problematic then clicking. If you've tried it on remote play with less then perfect internet speed dragging is a real bear.

I caved and bought the game because it was on sale. I was pleasantly surprised to find that only playing powers involves dragging. If playing powers worked with two clicks, just like pushing invaders/Dahan, that'd be great. I saw another thread where somebody wanted pushing to work like playing powers (i.e. dragging), so I guess there's no way to please everybody.

There is way actually, allowing both, drag and drop and click click. Many games work like that. The simplest exemple: most of chess games.

A bit late to the party, but I wanted to add that it is extremely weird that two different schemes where chosen to be in the game at the same time. I would expect both card plays and piece movements to adhere to the same control scheme.

Ideally, we have both options (but consistent) and can toggle them in the settings.

4 years late to the party, but I would like to ask, please add the option to toggle them. A lot of dragging causes too much pain in my hands
