Currently, there are a lot of selection screens, and items that require you to click to increment, or decrement a integer, since byond 508 MouseWheel was added, to allow for scrolling up, and down.
Here are a few things that could benefit from MouseWheel
- Telescience coord input
- Brig timers
- Timer assemblies
- Scrolling on the screen to switch hands, or scrolling on a hand to switch hands

This sounds like it could be quite useful.

It actually is, i've been playing around with MouseWheel on one of my own branches, it allows for a lot of cool stuff, e.g. scrolling up/down when holding specific items to switch their modes.

Doesn't clicking the mouse wheel change hands?

Please don't add this part, it would be murderous for anyone with a twitchy mousewheel.

A click of the mouse wheel already switches hands as far as I know, and BYOND isn't responsive enough for you to need more than that. The other ideas sound sane but I do wonder if it has similar performance implications as MouseMove.
