I don’t understand what you mean, is it this pane? The select of hero or any unit works just fine from here.

Too much work. You should be able to click the unit in the window and control it from there like the legacy. Once again, kids think they are evolutionary better. Fix it please.

Right, this might not be your preference but this is not a bug.

The implementation with modifier keys is also how it works in many (all that I’ve played) modern strategy games, so it’s safe to say it’s not going anywhere.

Don’t think you understand. if I want to pick one hero out of a unit of 30, I should be able to box the whole unit and pick the hero from the boxed unit description. Then direct that unit somewhere else on the map. You’re not the only person to play games btw. Outdated or not.
