Hi!
First I wanna say that I prefer to use Left mouse button for placing/selecting entities. So I have reconfigured ingame controls to place/select entities with Left mouse button and Mine with Right mouse button.
Now when working with editor it seems that the editor has its own controll settings. By defualt they sees like this:
- placing land tiles (water, grass, sand, etc.) = Left click
- adding ores = Left click
- removing ores = Right click
- placing entities = Right click
- selecting entities = Right click
Now since I prefer using Left click fro placing/selecting entities I changed the editor controls for primary and secondary controll but that reverses all controls so they look like this:
- placing land tiles (water, grass, sand, etc.) = Right click
- adding ores = Right click
- removing ores = Left click
- placing entities = Left click
- selecting entities = Left click
Now I would prefer to be able to set editor controls so they would ack like this:
- placing land tiles (water, grass, sand, etc.) = Left click
- adding ores = Left click
- removing ores = Right click
- placing entities = Left click
- selecting entities = Left click
So I would suggesting that you split these editor controls into several groups (placing land tiles, adding/removing ores, placing/selecting entities). Infact you don't even need seperate group and settings for placing/selecting entities. Just make sure that same settings is used as in ingame settings for placing/selecting entities.
Small redesign of Editor controls
