Do you know of any way to use other keys as modifiers? I'm using a Typematrix 2030 keyboard and the alt is kind of hard to reach with the thumb on the right side. It would be awesome if it was possible to use something like the right arrow as Alt modifier.

You can use sharpkeys to remap the keys globally for windows and then use an AutoHotkey-script to revert the change when Starcraft II is not running. This is what I did and it uses the setup described in "theCore from hell" in the master spreadsheet. I think it works great and so far I have no issues with the remapping.

+ Show Spoiler +

Remaps in sharpkeys (this is how they will behave in starcraft):
  • Special: Applcation ("list key") -> Special: RShift
  • Special: LAlt -> Special: Application
  • Special: Right Ctrl -> Special: Left Alt
  • Special: Right Shift -> Special: Right Ctrl


AutoHotkey script (put it in your startup folder so it starts with windows):

#NoEnv ; Recommended for performance and compatibility with future AutoHotkey releases.
; #Warn ; Enable warnings to assist with detecting common errors.
SendMode Input ; Recommended for new scripts due to its superior speed and reliability.
SetWorkingDir %A_ScriptDir% ; Ensures a consistent starting directory.


Process, Priority, , High

; Revert keys when starcraft is not running....
; In starcraft window:
#IfWin[b]Not[/b]Active StarCraft II
Rshift::Send {Blind}{AppsKey DownTemp}
Rshift up::Send {Blind}{AppsKey up}

AppsKey::Send {Blind}{LAlt DownTemp}
AppsKey up::Send {Blind}{LAlt up}

LAlt::Send {Blind}{RCtrl DownTemp}
LAlt up::Send {Blind}{RCtrl up}

RCtrl::Send {Blind}{RShift DownTemp}
RCtrl up::Send {Blind}{RShift up}

Return

Well, it isn't actually me who calls it that, but the one who wrote the sheet, wich I'm guessing is you . Btw I noticed it uses pinky and middlefinger for cg, is that only for random or did that turn out to be the most effective?

Link me! I totally forgot about this sheet. Also, the test results were inconclusive.

How are people managing injects with the LotV change to queens? Seems like the ability to inject on a hatchery that already has an inject on it makes the queens wander around now. Any thoughts? Noticed Destiny having this problem on stream last night and i don't think he's Core user so i believe this problem exists in general for "backspace method" injects

I am not playing the campaign until TheCore 3.0 is out and ready to be used for it!!!

(anyways I've got studies up until that may happen haha).

I think there is two options. Either switch to something else like rapid fire or box select queens, or you can hit "stop" / "hold position" after injects. Haven't tried that myself but it should work. I personally switched to camera locations and box select.

I am really looking forward for the updated version.

Im about switching from Zerg to Terran in Lotv. Is it recommended to switch from ZRM to TRM or RRM ?
Im using the core since 2-3 weeks. In my opinion the terran hotkeys dont make much sense. Why is there such a huge difference between the races? Is it important to have the right hotkeys for the race? Or is it ok to play terran with zerg layout. I feel ok with it; any suggestions or explainations? Thanks

There will be TheCore 3.0, TheCore+ 3.0 and TheCore Lite 3.0

and I am working on them in that order. Each will provide full support in campaign as well as multi-player.

Will TheCore+ use all combinations of the modifier keys? I count 8 possible modes: no-keys, Ctrl, Alt, Shift, Ctrl+Alt (=AltGr), Ctrl+Shift, Shift+Alt, Ctrl+Alt+Shift (=AltGr+Shift).
My idea is to rebind my keys like this: "/"->Alt "Shift"->Shift "right Alt"->Alt "right Win key"->Shift "Menu key"->Ctrl "right Ctrl"->AltGr
so the result is this:

_____| ALT ||___SHIFT__|
|ALT||SHIFT||CTRL||AltGr|

I used it in the past for WoW with much success.
