ALT clicking a unit will select that unit and whatever group is was last grouped with regardless of what control group any of these units are in. So if you select two zealots and four probes (six units in the wireframe display) and then start microing the zeals you can ALT click any of those four probes to select all of the original six units. | ||

Yes, it is very useful that way. It was mentioned in the last page, and I've been trying to edit it into my OP, but I can't seem to be able to edit it. | ||

Otherwise excellent guide. I learned a new way to select rines without stimming them 4 times. | ||

CTRL+C OR ALT+C = Center Camera on unit This command centers the screen on whatever unit you currently have selected. If you ever lose units from a group or somehow, this centers the screen on that unit. if for instance, you are trying to center the camera by double pressing a CTRL groups number and the screen diverts to an empty area because the units are too spread out, you can select one of the pictures and center on it with this command, or just any lost unit you are trying to find. ALT + Number = Center Camera on group number Alternate to double tapping group number. ALT + Click on unit = Last Group This was already mentioned, but ill list it for good measure. Selects all units that were last selected with that unit, NOT related to CTRL groups. Good for groups of Zerglings or other units that tend to die too quickly on CTRL groups. Shift + 1 = Add to Group Adds selected unit to group number, also already mentioned. ALT + O = Open Options Menu Screen Opens the Options menu subcategory. F10 opens main menu. CTRL + M = Toggle Music CTRL + S = Toggle Sound Also ALT is supposed to let you use hotkeys while typing messages, but I never got it to work right, so maybe it got patched out or something. I know this is an old thread, but most of these haven't been talked about yet, so i figured i would post them. | ||
