| Summary | 0019563: Selecting units on second planet acts as if shift is held down. | ||||
| Description | Go to planet 1, and drag-select select some units. Go to planet two, and drag-select some more. Observe that, apparently, both groups of units are still selected. Normally unless shift is held down, it should just be the second group of units that is selected at this point.

I've definitely done the "Select ark, send it to safety. Select fleet, send it to battle. Discover my Ark is now in the battle since it was still part of my selection" thing before |
|

This is because in PlanetViewSelector.cs::DoIsSelectingLogic we say if ( !mouseEventFlags.Has( ArcenInputFlags.Additive ) ) Engine_AIW2.Instance.ClearSelection( SelectionCommandScope.CurrentPlanet ); ie selecting on a new planet is going to be additive, since we don't clear the previous selection. To clear the previous selections then we would need to say Engine_AIW2.Instance.ClearSelection( SelectionCommandScope.AllPlanets ); the current behaviour winds up being confusing. The most problematic scenario is "I select my Ark on planet A and send it to safety. I then go to planet B and send my fleet into battle." This winds up with my Ark going to the battle, which is very undesirable. The choices to my mind are either to change the ClearSelection behaviour as mentioned above, or to provide really good UI feedback that you still have the Ark selected. |

If you don't mind, just changing the ClearSelection stuff as you note above would be perfect. It's definitely what people expect, and one less thing for Keith's list is always good. :) edit: Thank you, by the way -- as always! |

fixed in my sandbox (it's the one liner mentioned in the text). I'll push it later this weekend or monday once the .722 churn has died down. |
