Code:
mob
    DblClick()
        if(src.client||src==usr)
            return
        if(src.owner==usr.key)
            src.overlays-=image('Others.dmi',"owner")
            src.owner=""
        else
            for(var/mob/M in world)
                if(M.owner == usr.key)
                    M.overlays-=image('Others.dmi',"owner")
            src.owner=usr.key
            src.overlays+=image('Others.dmi',"owner")
turf
    Click(turf/T)
        for(var/mob/M in world)
            if(M.owner == usr.key)
                if(M.bussy)
                    return
                walk_to(M,T)
                sleep(2)
                while(get_dist(M,T) >0)
                    sleep(2)


Problem description:

I'm making a RTS game and my current select0unit system is bugged. Can someone post link to better one?
The current one is too buggy and lame, it selects more then one unit, they get buggy while moving, ect.

mob
    var
        mob/Owner
        image/IMAGE
        selected = 0
        list/Selected = list()
    DblClick()
        if(src==usr) return
        if(Owner!=usr) return
        else
            if(src in usr.Selected)
                usr.Selected -= src
                for(var/image/I in usr.client.images)
                    if(I == IMAGE)
                        usr.client.images -= I
            else
                usr.Selected += src
                IMAGE = image('Overlay.dmi',src,"Selected") // This would be the pointer, or whatever you use to mark the selected units
                usr << IMAGE
        ..()
turf
    Click()
        for(var/mob/M in usr.Selected)
            walk_towards(M,src,2)
        ..()

This allows you to select and move units.
Also, only >you< can see which units are selected.
NOTE: be sure to give the mobs an owner,, otherwise you won't be able to select/mvoe your units.
NOTE #2: I used walk_towards instead of walk_to, because when you have multiple units selected, and you tell them to mvoe using walk_to, only one mob will arrive at the turf, and the others will start to walk around him, trying to get into the turf. walk_towards doesn't include dense objects, so...

Well, if you have any doubts, contact me.
