Being the slow guy that I am, I'm still apparently stuck in my very first 80-planet diff 6 game but regardless of that, I feel like I've spent enough time to discuss hotkeys. I definitely don't think it's a good idea to make a new thread for every request so here goes:
[Edit]
My list rapidly expanded after putting more thought into this so I removed an older list I put up.
Galaxy View Filters/Shortcuts:
- A filter category and shortcut for finding out all engineers and rebuilders. (Maybe in something like a [#/#/#] format like [engineers/rebuilders/cleaners]. Custom search is ugh.) [RESOLVED, ALREADY EXISTS]
- A filter to view the total cumulative strength of all defenses and ships across planets.
- A filter to view the number and/or defensive units across planets.
Planet View Shortcuts:
- A hotkey for selecting all on-orbit transports. [RESOLVED, ALREADY EXISTS]
- A hotkey to make all selected ships board on-orbit transports... OR allow ships to board transports through shift-clicking. When a transport is fully loaded, ships simply move to the next transport... [RESOLVED, ALREADY EXISTS]
- A hotkey for selecting all non-mobile defenses? (Turrets, mines, speed traps...)
When a factory is selected:
- A button or shortcut for clearing the whole production queue.
- The following might annoy some people so I'll emphasize that the following shortcuts may be too lazy...
-- Middle-mouse-click results in adding one instance of all combat-capable ships to queue.
-- MMClick + Shift adds 5 of all combat ship types to queue.
-- MmClick + Alt does above but ten this time!
Some of the shortcuts I've listed here might already exist... I do try to review the controls list for something that might just quicken any part of my actions.
