[0.11.6] Automatic mining during map view

Post by Jump »

You can keep mining resources while viewing the overview map.

Steps to repeat:
* Left click on any resource to mine
* Press the overview map button
* Release the left mouse button
* You can navigate around in the overview while your avatar keeps mining in the background.

I have only tested this in 0.11.6 as I have no older versions available to test in.

Bug or feature...
Cool suggestion: Eatable MOUSE-pointers.

Well personally I am of the opinion that this is neither a bug nor a feature.

This here is what you call an Undocumented Creature.

I'm sorry but I solved it to be consistent with all other ways of input handling.
