Thanks for the suggestion. 1) we considered adding this function in, the prolem is that it is so fast that it could get banned. 2) if creep is changed for transfuse, then it ruins the entire creep spread method. An idea to build off yours is to assign the (select AI target hit key) to U, and infested Terran to U as an alternate. I don't mean to be rude, but I feel I should point something out. You once rightfully got upset with me for not citing your name when posting your idea. I was wrong not to. So I'm hoping you will recognize that (to my knowledge) the video you posted does not belong to you, and ought to be cited as well. In fact, it belongs to (edit): Kalhdor. Edit: and the original idea belongs to nick, as far as I know. | ||

Edit: mmm yes he did. I was talking about the video though. It's also possible that Kahldor knew this without checking out Fleet keys or TheCore. | ||

There's even another thread about this right now which is a little aggravating, to be honest. I'm happy that the idea is spreading, and I'd be even happier if Blizz would allow this, but I'm dissatisfied that Nick isn't the one who gets the credit. His hotkey layout only has 8 pages. | ||

The only thing I'm not seeing is that it's better to bind it to a convenient location so it can be used with any spell/ability/command (like X or S in Grid) rather than placing the binding on each spell. This leads me to believe that people haven't implemented the feature with much thought or testing yet, making the timing of all this even more stranger. Either way, like Ninjury said, I want it out there and deemed ok/dealt with. There's no point of hiding it; Khaldor telling the rest of the community will help confirm what we are all unsure about (whether this is a threatening, patch-worthy feature or a totally legal one). I suppose we wait for the Scarlet vods to roll in that feature her gosu creepspread that may/may not get banned. A complimentary Day[9] Daily showcasing it or even its mentioning on SotG would seal the deal in terms of exposure. Maybe that's what it needs for Blizzard to take notice? Edit: I just read this post from Khaldor: On May 11 2013 22:51 Khaldor wrote: Wanted to let you guys know that I also uploaded a video on this.

Really interesting read up, nice to see how indepth you guys researched this trick! Does that mean Scarlett actually started using this after seeing the posts on here? If so, that would be pretty damn cool. Snute gave it a thumbs up as well... Let the banning begin! (or not!) | ||

I just want a confirmation sooner rather than later. Although knowing how Blizz reacted to getting workers trapped inside gas so quickly, I'd say we're going to get it sooner anyways. | ||

I just put the leftclick on U and bound ITs to U as well, so it won't interfere with the camera creep spread method. | ||

Just make "U" your spam ability key for any unit you want to have that feature. For example my setup: infested terrains are bound to "I" and alt bound to "U" then you can get the best of both worlds. I find times when I DON'T want to use the spam method on purpose, such as single shot infested terrains into a siege tank line for friendly splash damage. This is why having U as the alt bound is critical. | ||

(I for JIOP users) Does anybody know if there'd be any conflicts to worry about if I just set O to the mouse click? creep tumors are not on "I" for ZRM, they are on "U" so you can use the camera creep method. As I said before, I just make "U" the spam ability, then give "U" as an alt binding to any unit that I want to spam. For me, that's creep tumors, infested terrans, and corruption. Everything else (zerg and terran) doesn't really benefit imo. | ||

a) I tried it with keeping the build depot button pressed, but my SCVs end up in an attackmove after building one depot. b) With shift they don't build them instantly, cause they finish the last task first. c) Move-command, then shiftqueue-building, the SCVs end up doing weird movements sometimes, driving through the base (when the path is blocked by newly build depot, i guess) How do you do it guys? | ||

The shift key on the bottom right hand side of the keboard has a very small key which types \ and | to the left of it which makes it a lot harder to cntrl shift. Is there any way to somehow change the setup so it combines the small key beside the shift key with the shift key to make some sort of big shift key?

I don't know how to upload pictures sorry so I will just post the link. There isn't a way to do this from within Starcraft. You could perhaps use a third-party utility to rebind that extra key to shift. The real solution to this problem is to get a proper keyboard that's ANSI/ISO compliant rather than a (presumably) horrible Chinese knockoff ![]() | ||

As a Terran if you have to build multiple supplydepots, what's the best way to do it? a) I tried it with keeping the build depot button pressed, but my SCVs end up in an attackmove after building one depot. b) With shift they don't build them instantly, cause they finish the last task first. c) Move-command, then shiftqueue-building, the SCVs end up doing weird movements sometimes, driving through the base (when the path is blocked by newly build depot, i guess) How do you do it guys? I do either B) or C) depending on the situation. I usually pull form the mineral line, but it is really common to just dedicate 1 or 2 SCVs to building depots to avoid the problems you are seeing with those methods (that is, they are idle when not building depots and are hanging out next to where you are going to build the next set). | ||
