Right click move orders.....

[Lord-Knight Fandragon]

What is with that? Its been a thing since forever in this game. Left click is move, left click is select, left click is do this and do that, right click is unselect. But I get it like every 5th click, I right click unselect and off goes my unit, moving......

Also, what is with Bradleys and Autocannon vehicles and DIrect Control mode? EVERY and I do literally, in every sense of the word mean, EVERY time I select an AC vehicle and enter Direct control mode, it will fire off 1 round. Oh,and im not holding the LMB......cuz if I was, it would fire off a nice long burst....

is it?
I do have:
left select and unselect
right click is move

the weird stuff are actions (throw a grenade etc), they are swapped
left is use and right is cancel

but this is legacy, players are used it since mow


yes when it fired already, one round somehow gets stuck and fired on entering dc.. there is some state not cleared correctly, but this is so minor that there wasn't time to fix that

I turned on alternate move orders, and yes, because it was like it was in Men of War, and it just felt more intuitive than the default controls. For me, everything is left click, use/move, and right click is unselect....most of the time... Plus, most RTS ive played are left click orders, right click does other non-order related stuff, like hold RMB+drag deploys formations in the Total War games.

Also, whats with selecting smoke grenades in tanks? It says its mouse 4, just like it is for selecting grenades on a soldier. It does in fact work to pick a grenade, but it wont work to fire my smoke grenades. I also cant find smoke grenade controls in the options anywhere to change it. Id honestly love to change both of those to one of the 1-9 on my keyboard, since, every other weapon is 1-3, so it only makes sense and keeps it intuitive and consistent.
