It happens very frequently that I misclick (meant to click on neighbor, mean to click modal, sensitive touchpad and many others) and ruin my game (and another player's). So by default left click opens the menu. As the attack button is in the middle you can just double click to attack. You can also shift+click to attack. I have updated the Help modal to document all that + the existing (just discovered in the code) ctrl+click to open build menu.
