Better Mouse Usage
« on: January 07, 2010, 04:09:20 pm »

I find that it's really nice to just be able to point and click instead of hitting the arrow keys a zillion times. I realize that for designating areas, this is already done (and it's really handy), but it could easily be used in other areas, too. For example, if you're loo(k)ing around, right-click does nothing.

Agreed, I would love to see perhaps even an option for an entirely mouse-based ui. I think that using the mouse more would make the game easier to get a grip on for new players, without dumbing down any features.

Better mouse support is an extremely popular suggestion.  Please use search next time like it says at the top of Suggestions.
