Im not sure if this has been suggested or not but.. Would it be possible to be able to use right mouse button as a remove tool when a road/rail "lay track" is selected, instead of having to click the remove button? This would make construction and modifications of road/rail alot quicker. Just a suggestion. Regards Reuben -- QUOTE : Back up my hard drive? How do I put it in reverse?

I think it is safe to assume that it is in fact possible. It is just a question of priority and effort from the development crew. > This would make construction and modifications of road/rail alot quicker. I wouldn't be surprised if you were right.

I'm not sure if the right mouse button isn't handled at a much lower
level and never makes it to the construction handlers.

I find that using the bulldozer hotkey, I can remove things very quickly.
Just hit the key to the left of "1" ("~" for me) to toggle the bulldozer.

That's right, it's handled in DoAllPlayerActions in a such way that right-clicking a landscape view area always triggers the view drag mode. (GenerateMouseDragEvents checks only the left button, too.) -- Marcin Grzegorczyk
