It might have been mentioned here earlier but is there a way to change backspace(cycles hotkey content?), to for example; tab?

yea i changed it to caps lock, just look for what is set to backspace already, i forget exactly what the command is called. or set something else to backspace and it will be in the unbound list.

infernal preigniter to F, that's about it. Armory keys to E A for vehicles attack/plating, S/H for ship weapon/plating.

Why is it so hard for Blizzard to make the grid system flexible? It is impossible to change one hotkey because every other hotkey on the same position will get changed too.
So i used the standard system as template and made my own grid. And yeah everything is fine now. But there is something that Blizzard completely forgot. You cant change the creep tumor! I want it on Y (QWERTZ) and not on C! BLIZZARD! WHY! QQ

Well I did but the backspace is "rotate and camera" and it doesn't seem to work -__-
It's almost impossible to describe how frustrating it is to not being able to hotkey all my bases to 1 hotkey because I can't reach backspace quickly ._____.

Changing Infestor Pit to P instead of I, I accidentally make extra infestor pits when I manage to get Ultra Caverns, has happened several times now to me.

Looks like blizzard forgot to add the possibility to change one hotkey, Creep Tumor and i mean when you already have the creep tumor made by queen and then you clone it.

about the custom hotkeys - pressing backspace normally cycles through bases, but if I change the hotkey it won't cycle - it'll just go to the main. Is there a way to fix this?

I'm so surprised you're the first one to point out that problem... When I saw the patch I was so disapointed I couldn't just change my hotkeys from the grid and switch the **** T and Q button (for move and attack...).
I want my wc3 hotkeys back !!
If someone as any clue to do that, feel free to PM me, thank you

I use ~ for jumping bases (the one to the left of 1). I'm hoping this will make larva inject quicker and easier to perform.

Control Groups- 1-4, Q-E
5 is Idle Worker
R/T are Unit Abilities
Grid Set up (5x2)- A-G, Z-B (Steering away from using Z/X if possible)
I have it optimized so that A is Build, S is Adv Build and in those menus I have the buildings most produce in the best spots like A being Pylon and S being Gateway
F1-F4 are Camera Views
Tab/Backspace binds are swapped
C/V are Toggle Abilities (ie Cloak/Uncloak, Seige/Unseige)
F is Attack, G is Hold,V is Patrol

As a random player, it'll take forever to get used to but at least its damn efficient. As a post WoW player, I know that for myself getting optimal binds and taking the time to get used to them is worth it rather than sticking with what you are comfortable with.

I changed inject larva from V to E and then changed base camera from backspace to shift-E. I find I'm able to inject larva ridiculously fast this way.

Wow thanks, that one is awesome! Didn't think of using shift as a modifier, but it makes sense since you're holding it down anyway. I've also got tilde bound to control group 0 where I put all my queens:

Tilde, E, hold shift, E click, E click, E click.

Super easy.

Only thing I'm changing is the town hall button (backspace, cycles between hatcheries etc.) to tilda.

I'm going to change my Space bar to "ctrl" mainly because I don't use the Space Bar but my thumb is always resting there. And I have some difficulty hotkeying with control. =p
