ok so i have a logitech g710+ via USB (in a rollover test it can press every key but that doesn't seem to mater for this)
normal rapid fire works fine for warp ins ITs ect
my keyboard produces jkkkkk for the RFIT
keyboard king was my first workaround, when u use keyboard king its a lil buggy (ie you can not bind any keys in any app if KK is running on that key but if that key is already mapped then it seems to function normal) but it does give you jkjkjkjkjk i just dont trust its reliability of the key functioning perfectly every time
so then i tried the mouse button work around and this works and i like it alot as now i have base cam key binded to my mouse, although i might switch keys and put my rapid fire key on my mouse Z (for zealots rebounded as an alt keybind for most rapid fire acceptable abilities such as snipe and IT) then i can rapid fire things from my mouse but idk
but i thought i would post and add that i find the mouse workaround to be the best and cant be against TOS as keyboard king seems the be in the grey area. (i mean your editing the way your OS and keyboard interact not the way your game and os/keyboard interact, but really you can make a bot with the same philosophy)

TL:DR if your keyboard does jkkkk instead of jkjkjk bind one of the letters to a side button on your mouse then u dont need third party software

"1. Bind an alternate to "Choose Abilily or AI target" that matches another command (such as spawn larva)."

I did this and added it to my creep spread, but how would i go about rapid firing infested terrans? I heard FireCake talking about it, any help?

the process is the same for Infested Terrans. What are you doing specifically? It should be working.

just rebind the alternate (or main) key for infested terrans to the same button as your rapid fire key.

Is it possible to use RF without changing any other hotkeys from their defaults in the blizzard ui?

Yeap, just bind the RF key to the alternate instead of overwriting the primary keybind.

JaKaTaK I use DarkGrid still. I love it! I just hate how the hotkeys conflict with arcade games so I have trouble when I wanna take a break in one of those... Remembering to a-move instead of Q-moving is hard...

Thanks for this, though! I will definitely be setting this up with DarkGrid's spell keys.

Uhm, guys, why is rapid fire Smart command not working in LotV?

It does work the same way. The section in the hotkey file may have changed, you should manually input one and then edit the rest onto it if you have multiple keys.

But did you try Smart Command specifically? Because everything works fine for me with rapid fire, except Smart Command.

Can confirm, it doesn't seem to repeat any more. I#m fine with that, I didn't have any use for it anyway.

Smart Command is what is usually done with right click. You can/could bind it to a key and use it in a similar way as regular rapid fire.

It makes Phoenix micro more comfortable, though. I also see no reason why it had to be removed.

Why, though?
Also, I wonder if the same effect can be achieved by RF-ing Move instead of Smart Command.

Don't know why it was removed, have to ask Blizz and its pretty low on my priority list. RF move should have the same effect for phoenix and RF gather for worker pairing.

Rapid fire with move command should work. I use it with banelings in ZvZ and sometimes with scouting zerglings in ZvP, and I don't see why it shouldn't work with phoenixes.

Has anyone found a workaround for lotv yet?
