Hi,

Any idea about when TheCore 3.0 will be ready ?

Seeing as how there are 24 different variations of TheCore (multiplied by each international and alternative layout), my best guess is, neverrrrrrrrrrr........

.....or just a really long time. Maybe prioritize US Qwerty RRM?

Using dahappychappy's RRM hotkeys based on jakatak's 3.0 beta in the meantime. I like most of it, though I'd question some of the changes

Much appreciated, I will look to practice using control group cloning in the near future.

@JaK
I did some analysis on the drop sequences. TL;DR: Add and Create/Steal is optimal for drop sequences, and therefore stands as a strong argument for why Terran should use Add and Create/Steal.

First of all we can either Create Add a Drop to an existing CG. The sequence shown in the video Adds the Drop and its contents to a CG. Which one we want, and if we need both, I am not sure.

Add Drop to CG
	Video sequence				Alternative sequence			

1 Select Army CG Select Army CG
2 Add to Drop CG Add/Steal to Drop CG
3 Load Medivac(s) Load Medivac(s)
4 Shift-click Medivac(s) Shift-click Medivac(s)
5 Create/Steal to Army CG (Add/Steal OR Create/Steal) to Army CG

Uses: Add and Create/Steal Add/Steal (Optional: Create/Steal)

I essence, the results shown in the video can be achieved with only Add/Steal instead of Add and Create/Steal.


Create Drop to CG
1	Select Army CG				Select Army CG
2 Create to Drop CG Create/Steal to Drop CG
3 Load Medivac(s) Load Medivac(s)
4 Shift-click Medivac(s) Shift-click Medivac(s)
5 Create/Steal to Army CG (Add/Steal OR Create/Steal) to Army CG

Uses: Create and Create/Steal Create/Steal (Optional: Add/Steal)

As for Creating Drops, having Create/Steal is a must.

On that note I would like to point out the following equivalence:
Add/Steal + Create = Create + Add/Steal = Create/Steal
By Add/Stealing and Creating a Selection to a CG in any order, it will be as just having used Create/Steal. This enables the use of Create/Steal and with it Creating Drops for layouts using Add/Steal and Create at the cost of 1 extra action.

Conclusion
If we're only interested in Adding Drops, then using Create/Steal and Add is just as good Add/Steal.
If we're interested in Creating Drops, then Create/Steal and Add wins over Add/Steal by one action.

Note: that this is only when overlooking modifier synergies. With Create/Steal on Shift, one could Shift-click the Medivac(s) and, while still holding Shift, Create/Steal to Army CG for both Add and Create Drop.

This is exactly the kind of stuff I've been looking for. Fucking brilliant as usual.

Going to re-evaluate what's necessary/best now.

Drops. Put your drops on an alternate control group and your marines/whatever won't end up running around with your main army in an annoying fashion.

Hi Guys,
I realized i made a mistake with the Factory build cyclone hotkey. Wrong bracket key. is supposed to be the "[" key NOT the "]"

I fixed it up. https://www.dropbox.com/s/48hy569ykla58np/core 3 prelim.SC2Hotkeys?dl=0

Hi,

Thanks a lot for doing these hotkeys. I noticed that some control group keys are different from those in the Core 2.0. Since I guess you have played with this new hotkey lay-out, can you recommend/share which keys to use for: Nexus/CC/hatcheries, Production buildings, main army (and others if you have) ?

Many thanks

By the way, there are some hotkeys missing:
- Oracle: Activate Pulsar Beam (chose "K" for this one)
- Warp Gate: Transform to Gateway ("I" was still available for this)

And the disruptor ability was still using the default 'v' key (in my settings I moved this to "I")

From the perspective of a gold toss that played about 60 ladder games with the standard grid and wanted to start using TheCore: should I wait for version 3.0? Or can i just start by following the initial post?

For RRM 2.0, anyone know if I or K should be the most used spell key? Shouldn't it be I since it's a home key?

Edit: nvm, Stim and Unload All conflicts because of bunker lol

I think Transform to gateway is unbound because you generally want to stick with warpgates, like permanently

Hi Op,
Thanks for letting me know on mine it says I set
Disruptor ability = I & K as per the video not sure why this has not come through. Because you want a rapid fire for it to kill pfs.


Thanks for picking up that activate pulsar beam is supposed to be K

I have resaved my hotkeys and re uploaded. I left turn back to gateway off.

Thanks for the help Op
