Trilobite:
Will bots be easier to select in future versions?

I always have an insane amount of trouble 'catching' bots... it really does feel like a game of cat and mouse. Even when I think I've clicked on it, I haven't. This is especially on small bots.

Houshalter:
Try pausing it and using zoom and right click.

Trilobite:
Thanks, appreciated but it till doesn't solve the problem with the smallest ones.  The options such as viewing robot data are greyed out like when you haven't selected it properly, and I can't get the proper selection no matter how hard I click.

I try to click the white bit because that's the only way I can get the window to pop up at all, but as I said the options are always greyed out on the very smallest bots.

Moonfisher:
Are you sure they're not corpses... even size 1 bots can be opened and manipulated.
Also if you have to bring up the menu a lot and your bots are very small you can just change the code and make them stay larger while you're deubbing...

Houshalter:
I got an idea for future versions. You could have rts style selection and just click and drag your mouse over an area. It will then select one bot at random (or all the bots if thats even possible)
