@RIOT Can you make it so that my champion walk toward where I click

I'm tired of LoL's horrible pathfinding and I'm not comfortable with any of the current movement and attack command. 1- I use attack/move as one of my primary attack command, I'm not a very mechanically skilled player but I still want the ability to kite. It's also nice to automatically attack when face checking a bush. But I missed many kills because attack/move make me walk away from my target. Mostly happens during jungle teamfights because if my low health target walk in a bush I have no vision on, I will away from him for farther away, high health enemy. What I want attack/move click to do is to automatically auto-attack as soon as I'm in range, but never make me walk by itself. 2- When I try to attack someone over a wall as an adc (using any movement command) my champion will walk away from the wall even if he would be in AA range if he walked toward the wall, once I do manage to AA someone though the wall, if my target move a tiny bit away he will once again walk away from the wall. 3- When I click a few millimeter away from my champion position, he will not move at all. I'm not a very skilled player but I still would like to have that amount of precision, a few millimeter is the difference between being in a bush or not 4- When I'm typing in chat and I want to use an ability I can't. I have to either erase why wrote or press press enter and have a half written sentence with some q/w/e at the end. I've played many action game, but LoL is the only game in which that happens, in EVERY other game, if click outside the chat box, I can use my abilities normally! (same with the shop plz) 5- Can you make Attack Champion Only a toggle? I don't want to functionally lose one of my fingers, and having a finger locked in place affect the rest of my hand. BTW last time I tried it didn't work with Attack/Move. 6- Would be nice if the option menu was available from the client. It's not practical to change those in game. I had to re-download the game several time and the game isn't playable on default setting (Auto-Attacking minion whenever immobile and no smart cast).

I know that some of these things can be dealt with some of the current keys but I would like the ability to turn off all automatic movement on Attack/Move at the very least. Path finding can be useful occasionally but I would gladly lose it for the sake of precision.

RITO PLZ!!

I've died so many times in the jungle when i shouldn't have because i issue a move command thats a pixel to far and the auto-pathing sends me the opposite direction.

I think adding an option to make move commands move in a straight line to your curser and stopping at any obstacle. Having it as an option allows players to opt out of using it.

The only problem i see is unit collision being an issue. For example giving a command on the other side of a minion wave.

I also think that autopathing isnt as bad as you made it sound. Its just that sometimes the shortest possible route to where you clicked isnt always the safest/best way. The issue is where we issue the move command.

As an ADC main the wall thing really does piss me off, Take my upvote sir.

Don't care about the rest of the post but this^ gets a +1 from me.

Warding over walls also needs to be fixed. I've had many times where I've attempted to put a ward over a wall, just for my character to go walking over there. If I wanted to facecheck that bush, I would have done it from the beginning. No need to make me walk over there when the animation clearly says the my warding range is long enough.
