This just doesn't work in my game. Nothings happening, when I C-Click + Leftclick on the icon in the group.

This was removed with a patch a while back.

I haven't had any luck with chronoboost on the minimap.

Yeah, it's down right impossible. If you tried it consistently you'd probably be chronoboosting the wrong building half the time.

I've tried it on the minimap for expansions where the Nexus is the only thing nearby but even that doesn't work well cause it takes 3 or 4 clicks before you're actually targeting a building.

Didn't think that worked, must have been patched at some point. Too bad, would have made chronoboosting a lot easier.

Something that's useful which I never new and helped me, although it might be really obvious now, you can hold down the unit shortkey in production buildings or while selecting larva. I've wasted a lot of time selecting larva and hitting d or z a couple thousand times when I could have just held it down and gotten them out faster.

Two small details:
1. Workers on Watchtowers do not count as idle (they will not get selected when hitting F1).

To add to this, if you tell a worker to go to a tower with a 'Move' command, they won't respond to an attack, they'll just site there. I've gotten so many kills from attack-moving one of my workers into the tower, and killing the opponent's worker there before he can react.

Buildings have the same multiple segment waypoints, you can hold shift and draw the desired waypoint path, useful for hidden air tech, not spawning units into crammed building sites but still being able to route them to the desired destination.

You can keep the shortkey pressed for a building, too. Like take your probe, hit 'B' then keep 'E' pressed and you'll be able to place your Pylon as soon as you get 100 minerals.

The most useful of all :
At the beginning of the game, if you hit Ctrl-F1, you'll have ALL YOUR WORKERS selected and ready to go mining.
I actually bound Ctrl-F1 to one of my mouse buttons.

ctrl+R! I actually spent time trying to find a hotkey to tell scvs to auto cast repair, but alas, I could not find one.

Thank you, that was the only hotkey i feel was escaping me, and i always felt so nooby having to actually click on a command.
