Widen Select Same Type to every selected type and the whole map
Select Same Type now adds to the selection rather than replacing it. The command dropped everything that was selected before hunting for matches, so units standing off screen were lost from a selection that was only meant to grow. They now stay selected.
Units the player does not control no longer decide what is hunted for. A selection that included an enemy or neutral object used to sweep the view for the player’s own units of that object’s type; only types taken from the player’s own units count now.
Pressing the command a second time within half a second widens the sweep from the visible view to the whole map, which gathers every unit of the selected types wherever it stands. A slower second press sweeps the view again, as a single press does.
