Hi,
I'm building an RTS and would like to have hold right mouse scroll the screen and when it's not scrolling have right click deselect any units. Is this possible (and have I been clear)?
Both are already coded but of course whenever I right click and hold to scroll all units get deselected. It seems that 'when mouse key is pressed' is basically 'user clicks' + hold. I have experimented with values, flags, timers, etc. My most productive trial was with click + drag = scroll and just click = deselect, but still the same issue.
Please help, most RTS's have this function and it's driving me nuts!
Thanks so much.

+ User clicks with right mouse button
-> Set DragX to XMouse
-> Set DragY to YMouse
-> Set MouseDown to 1
-> Set ClickLength to 0
+ Repeat while right mouse button is pressed
-> Centre horizontal position of frame at: ((X Left Frame+X Right Frame)/2)+(DragX-XMouse)
-> Centre vertical position of frame at: ((Y Top Frame+Y Bottom Frame)/2)+(DragY-YMouse)
-> Add 1 to ClickLength
+ Repeat while right mouse button is NOT pressed
+ MouseDown = 1
+ ClickLength < 9 // change this value to vary the delay between click and click/drag
-> De-select all units...
+ Repeat while right mouse button is NOT pressed
-> Set MouseDown to 0

Mad! Works perfect, thanks.
What got me was:
+ Repeat while right mouse button is NOT pressed
+ MouseDown = 1
+ ClickLength < 9
NOT pressed! aha.... seems counter-intuitive at first but I get it now.
Cheers!
