Hello guys, one of the things which bugged me with the "select all wall pieces" hotkey in DE is that it selects all the walls visible in that screen. Especially on Arena, when you try to delete the walls at the back of your base, you can end up deleting a wall piece you dont intend to. I was thinking, why not have a feature where if you select one wall piece, and then hold a hotkey and select another wall piece far away, it actually selects all the walls in between those two wall pieces. (Kinda like how in Windows, you can use shift to select all the files/folders in between and including two files). Like imagine if you press one wall piece, and then hold shift and click another wall piece, it only selects those two wall pieces and all the pieces in between (remember, this has to different than the normal ctrl/shift clicking where you can select multiples units of different types).
I actually believe this is a very easy and simple task, in terms of coding. I am not very familiar with the code of the game, but in general, linked lists/arrays are very basic concepts in computer science, and deleting wall features in age of empires can be implemented using these concepts.
