Summary0003498: Double click unit selects unit's group instead of units of same type on the screen
DescriptionIt should always select units of the same type on screen as is the RTS standard.

I agree that this should be changed, objections ?

This is very old behaviour in spring (not 92 specific) so players may be used to this way of selecting a group.
Atm Ctrl+DoubleClick selects all units of type (not only on screen).

How would you replace this functionality game-side? I think listening to mouse clicks directly with a widget is a bit of a hackey solution.

I mean it should be changed in engine, i dont know how feasible it is to make it game configurable.

GoogleFrog if you want to expose it, just add "doubleclick" event and let lua decide what to do , but in general i think it should just do what doubleclick does in all other RTS .. select units of the same type on the screen.

+9001 spring behavior on this drives me nuts!

Yes, I would like this to be configurable but I was pointing out that it cannot simply be removed from engine. A doubleclick event (maybe even in selectkeys?) would be good.

No objections for one week, committing to develop.
