Revision of some comands.

Hi all. I know i'm as noob as possible, but i need to address this issue.
I am glad, that the game is based on hard rules, and not some random stuff. Still i have some issues with the control of my character.
For the entire game i have played (so far 4 days) i have learned to use right mouse button and chose an option from a menu, or do whatever. Example:
I lift something, i drop it with the RMB.
I start pulling a cart, i stop by RMB and choosing the option from a menu.
And now my issue:
I right click a boat, i chose to go on board. The logic would be to right click again on the boat to get off of it. No, i need to hold CTRL and then Left Click. WTF? Where did that came from? Nothing so far ever asked me to press CTRL... Why? You have trained the player to press RMB and navigate the menu, and now the random CTRL button...
It's not a deal breaker, but i'm only 4 days in, and everything has been fine... But what else could be random and make me click hour and a half, until asking in the global chat...
Thank you for your time and sorry if it sounds harsh. I really like this game and wish to be able to play it for a looooooooong time :)

there are other Keyboard shortcuts using CTRL ;)

but don't worry i guess most players wondered about in their first days - including me (have CTRL on a mouse button now...)

OK, and most of the ctrl commands are interface commands... IDK... I just think it would be much less confusing if all ctrl commands that are not interface are made as RMB and menu choice, like 99% of the things...
