Description
-When dragging the selection box over screen, only select military units if there are any, if not, then make it only choose villagers, and only let 1 building get selected at once instead of(lets say) 10, currently if you drag you get villagers,buildings and military units in one selection

Yes, that would actually be better, except for the left+right part, it would be an annoying starting issue about left+right click, as its not used in other games. Just my 2 cents.

I'll work on right-click bandboxing to select only military units.

This looks good, I will commit it now. One minor coding style point is you should use spaces for alignment in the default.cfg file, otherwise people with different tab sizes will get misaligned comments.

I would suggest that click-drag not select any buildings at all. Buildings should only be selected by direct click and also through double-click (selecting all buildings of the same type). I also agree with the drag box preferring to select military units first. Perhaps we can have left-click-drag select only support units (females, trader, healers) and left+right-click-drag select only military units. We need to discuss this further.
