Globulation2

Hi. I miss one feature in gameplay - building shortcuts. Like in StarCraft or WarCraft strategies you were able to command units and build buildings with keyboard shortcuts - it saved a lot of time and mouse movement. And of course - I play on a larger screen resolution and those icons are small and it is slightly hard (and time consuming) to click them. It would be really great

Thats a good idea, there is a request in the bug tracker for an avanced settings menu which will make it easier to allow reconfigurable keys. If ever the reconfigurable hotkey option goes online then it (should) be easy to simply to add in building hotkeys as well.

Just in case you havn't found them yet, there are some shortcuts already:

Can be used anytime:

• p = pause
  t = target
  i = infomation
  h = history
  a = unknown function
  v = speak (voice)
  enter = speak (message)
  spacebar = last event
  home = jump to the first swarm ever made
  esc = display menu
  m + click screen = signal allies for assistance
  right mouse click = cycles through tabs automatcally

Used when a building is selected:

• r = repair
  u = upgrade
  d = destroy
  +/- = increase/decrease assigned workers

The latest CVS version now allows for customizable hotkeys.

Hi,
I'm new to Glob 2, and have found it quite fun.

The '+' key for assigning more workers doesn't work unless I use the numpad. Perhaps someone can change that to either '+' or '=' so the +/= key works just like the -/_ key.

hint: mousewheel works faster in most cases

thanks
