Description

Feature request:

- Select all chunks "between" the last selected chunk and the clicked chunk by holding shift when clicking the second chunk.
- Select all chunks (for small worlds) by pressing Ctrl+A

---
Original message:

when selecting chunks allow their to be a rectangle selection tool instead of having to zoom out and select a region, i would personally do this:
click on one chunk (this will be one corner of the selection
then shift click the oppersite corner, (personally again i would highlight the selection that you will make if/when the user presses the shift key in a much more translucent red than the selected colour is - so to clarify if your using red but 50% translucent for full selected chunks then as the graphic to show the about to be slected chunks id use 75% transparency - almost like the effect you get when your mouse is hovering over a button but not clicked it yet)

i would use shift click soley because this is already a standard in windows explorer when selecting files between 2 points but ofc whatever works but i feel that selection method would be intuitive for alot of people
I would also add CTRL-A to select all chunks which will be usefull for small worlds
