Crazyhouse keyboard controls

I wish this came out like 2 years ago when all I ever did was play crazyhouse.

:(
I need something like that I have an issue which is why I use two clicks to play moves, but I can't use that for dropping pieces in crazyhouse.

My problem is when I'm dragging a piece it sometimes lands early i.e. before the square I intended to move it. And yesterday that happened in crazyhouse when dropping a queen in - it landed on a square I had never intended. It wasn't hanging there but also wasn't any real use there.

Luckily I went on to win that game anyway but that's besides the point.

I should be allowed to click on the piece I wish to drop then the square where I wish to drop it, but another means to ensure I play only the move I plan to is always useful.

So presumably to drop a queen I put one finger on the number 5 and then click the mouse where I intend to drop it?
Just tried it out in a simple match against a bot and yes it worked.
#13 I agree that click-to-select would be a nice feature.
