Anonymous Player #25234

Greetings everyone,

As an RTS player who is used to left-clicking, I have noticed that the Shift command does not work when using left-click with villagers.

For example, if I want my villagers to move from gathering boars to gathering sheep, or to build a house and then go back to gather wood, it doesn’t work.

However, I have noticed that this command oddly enough works when the resources are not in my line of sight or are under fog.

I have attached three pictures to demonstrate what I mean.

As you can see from the images, I am able to shift-click my villager to move them to a different location to gather a resource if it is out of vision, but if it is in my line of sight, I cannot seem to make it work.

It feels like I am selecting the bush separately.

This is a significant issue for me as it causes a lot of idle time.

Any assistance in resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated.

I think you should use right click, not left click.

Left click is usually for looking at things. (Exceptions are when you use a specific type of move command, like patrol, attack move, etc.

You can use left or right click for those.)

Right click is for doing things.

>im an Old School Rts Players and used to left clicking,

I highly recommend getting used to AoE’s system 😛

As opposed to C&C (and I think Warcraft), AoE 1 (and ofc 2) use both mouse buttons.

Left selects units, right gives out orders
