How long has this been in game? point to point selection omfg. If it's been in from release I might shoot myself*.



* not really

[RazoR]

What does it do exactly?
+1

Edit: Oh i get it. But why would you need to lock more than two targets at once?

[dongbutte]

as long as I can remember...but I've only been playing 2 1/2 years. Also ctrl + click to do add/remove from selection.

That has been possible for as long as I know. I find it very intuitive, as it works the same in word etc.
Click + Shift-Click to select a bunch of stuff. Same way as I use Ctrl + A instead of Right Click > Select All

I knew about this, but for some reason since I started playing eve in 06 I assumed it didn't work. I am quite literally dumbfounded.

I fucking know right? I mean how the fuck didn't I already know this. When I finally subconciously performed said task about a week ago I paused and had a "no fucking way" moment, and finally decided to see how long I've been an idiot. Turns out for quite a long while.

If I haven't rage quit since '06 why do you think I would rage quit about this? Or was it a general inquiry?

From what I've learned from my first mutiplayer games EQ/EQ2 chat is for typing wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww in, followed by a "fuck sorry"

When did invention come out? about 3 months after that is how long I've been inventing. This is why I had to inquire on the magnitude of my derp.

Well, the control + page up/page down things were new to me, and save a lot of clicking.

For your kind of people, Humanity has made an intuitive interface even a special ed student could drool on and make media. It can't do anything else worth a damn, but it looks pretty.
You can't open it and mess with the parts, so it does only what you think it can do.
Best of all it runs EvE.[poorly as usual]

I only have one apple product tyvm, and that's an ipod. I don't like it and bought a non-apple variant for my stuff on the go needs. The ipod mini I have does have solitaire so it spends its time in my bathroom and provides me with solitaire while I am taking a shit.

Well, as someone who admins 45 Mac users daily, yes, Mac users can be pretty retarded. But, as someone who also admins 15 Windows users, Windows users are more often than not just as clueless. The only people in our company who don't have problems with their OS are the web development guys, but they have problems like CCP does in that they think they're too cool to need to communicate.

Just checking, have you worked out how to split stacks?

[lubica]

A general inquiry as I'm low on isk, cba to kill NPCs and for some reason that I cannot consciously define, I'm making a 4th combat character :?

I was impressed when I found out I could not only choose a default orbit and default "keep at" distance, but also a default "warp to" distance.

I have since been warping in at scout range at like 57 km and such.

Yes select all and drag is very similar. or are you picky when you loot a wreck?

[Tellenta]

Nah I just failed to use an old function that lost its purpose for me when I was able to make selection boxes via click and drag. It was a method of selection that was filed in my brain box mostly forgotten because it was personally and professionally irrelevant to my needs in the IRL. I must have been channeling my younger pimply self when I recalled the function and performed it automatically. I was also a little drunk.

I am, to be fairly honest. When you start killing all these nc scrubs a lot of wrecks with meta 1-2 or straightout T1 items will come up, and you'd want to be as fast as possible to cherrypick the good stuff and faction ammo :lol:

Ah I usually just invert selection if there are cap boosters, and poop out cans when I get a chance to see if I have shit that is worthless.

Doesn't have to be ctrl+shift click afaik. I've just been shift clicking to select a contiguous bunch of stuff in my hangar for ages.
