@Hairy Existor is right about the alert disappearing, rendering it un-clickable. It reappears with a running total when nothing else enters the alert list. Here-- it isn't fancy but you can see how this running total thing works, and how it behaves when it becomes interrupted. In each image, between completion of the Marines, the icon disappeared because of the 10-second fade out shown in the first image. I did this with 3 naked Rax. | ||

You can actually make the alerts stay indefinitely longer than 10s by clicking it. It refreshes the timer on that particular alert. This way, you can juggle certain game alerts to prevent them from disappearing. However, it's unreliable in a real game as the alerts eventually get pushed out by newer alerts. | ||

First, is this in the 1000 tips thread ? because it's certainly worthy. Second, clicking the alerts is one thing, but there is also a hotkey for "Last Alert", which I believe is spacebar by default. So, if Ctrl+Spacebar isn't bound to something else, would that have the same effect ? Also, I know repeated 'Last Alert' hotkey activation cycles more than just the last 10 seconds, so would Ctrl+spacebar have the same effect ? | ||

Ctrl+spacebar doesn't select anything. Unfortunately. | ||

- When you have 3 hatcheries and a lair(or hive) grouped, building 4 queens would queue the 4th queen up on one of the hatcheries, and not a single one on the lair (or hive). I was hoping that there would finally be a solution to that! But sadly, no  I have these notifications disabled though, because I would often accidentally click on them while micro'ing, making my camera go all over the place. I lost a lot of games because of that  . | ||
