Right click - left click - right click and so on...
Ok this is really the only thing that is bothering me so far... Moving an unit is done by selecting it and then righ click anywhere on the map. Same when you want to attack. Basic RTS control.

But then here come the culprit. When you select any action such as smoke, fast move etc... then the action need to be actionned/triggered by LEFT clicking on the map or the ennemy...

I find it just annoying. This is disturbing the gameplay immersion.

Can this be change or at least explain from a game design point of view ?

Thanks a lot

The move button is fast move, and the right click is slow move. There needs to be away to cancel action without clicking or hitting stop on the unit..

Or why not just implement a double click for fast move ? This has been around for decades on RTS... seems cumbersome to me than we have to click a icon and then to select the destination with left click while normal move is the opposite mouse button. Doesn't make more sense and just complicates the gameplay.

If THAT is too complicated to you, maybe you are just playing a wrong game.

yeah find it also very annoying and confusing

Have you played Starcraft 2 or Warcraft 3 or Dota 2/LoL? All abilities are left click. It would be actually very unusual to see ability on right click. Most of RTS or RTS derivatives I played are like that, except for one very old RTS that had ability (and base building) on right click.

I played a bunch of hours yesterday, and it seemed unit commands to other unit commands that there ins't consistency. IE it seemed that if I didn't right click the target with redicle and then left click my planes wouldn't launch there mission. Some units dont have fast travel when unloaded... etc
