    There are different possible bindings on Mousekeys.

    Why would you want to break with decades worth of RTS controls?

    Why would you make a third thread on something that isn't terribly important?

    Oh, and you made it a poll too!

    What do you mean?
    TA Supcom and C&C(+some other) uses Right Click deselect and Left for select/command

    It is important. Good control is key for good gameplay/fun in games!

    Pretty pointless.

    Everyone uses the first option, only some early C&C games used the left click select/command:right click deselect.

    Left click select; Right click command is a virtue of mouse input for RTS game...
    Even latter Command & Conquer series (from TW to RA3) use it.

    But not the "ancestors" of PA, they all don't use it.

    Customization, the first option reminds me too much of starcraft, TA did it so much better...
