Thanks for posting this as sticky. I was going to do this for a month now. :oops:

BTW, congratulations on new promotion and new avatar. ;)

I figured if I can make stickies, I might as well use that ability to make a useful one. Someone mentioned hot keys somewhere, and that finally reminded me to grab your list from an old thread.

Oh yea, and this sticky was my 300th post. Nobleman is way better than that silly warrior, I was stuck with him for a good 100 posts (hence a lot of 1 sentence posts lol)

We really need an 'o' hotkey to omit units from the que.

I also thought space-bar was supposed to bring up some sort of unit-panel?

Ok I'm an idiot. I realize now that SLEEP should be able to do the same thing (at least in theory).

Does this mean that in practice Sleep command does not work? :)

No, sleep command works just as it should.
What he is saying is 'why isn't there an omit command to skip over units when I cycle through next unit'
followed by the realization that
'Oh, I see there is a sleep command, this should skip over units I cycle through in a queue just like I wanted omit to do.'
Language barrier mistakes, I assume.

I'm not sure I like P for Purchasing units. Maybe change this to B for Buy or something?

'P' is generally reserved for 'Previous' unit in the que.

Now... we just have to add in that function into the que.

We should also have hot-keys for stats panel and the unit list?

I would also like to see the 'o' key binded to the z. Not just to keep things consistant with the pg series, but also because it is far more natural for the que hot-keys to all be rapidly pressed with the same right hand in an easy to reach manner.

The thread is a sticky, you shouldn't have needed to search for it to begin with. :)
