This library uses the client mouse control functions to emulate an RTS-like unit selection system.

Also, you can hold down shift to select more units to add to the group you've already selected.

I'll clean it up and comment it in the coming days. Also, I've tried it in multiplayer. Performs quite well, really. You just have to make sure the players can't select too many units, like 2000 units at once. :o

[EDIT] wooaah
