Diagonal/true line designations

(1/3) > >>

Frugal:
With the advent of diagonal movement, diagonal designations are more useful.  Unfortunately, the designation tool still works in squares, making diagonal designations time consuming.  I propose a line-designation tool for this purpose.  Perhaps you could go a little farther, and turn the designation tool into true multi-point area selection.  For instance, you could dig out a triangle or rhombus easily if you could put down more than two vertices before filling in the area.

I saw this in another thread and someone swore that diagonal movement was already 1.4 times as long.

For many situations, it would be sufficient (and very useful) to be able to designate a single square and say "dig your way here".
