I'm happy with the hotkeys overall, will only change the really awkward ones like b(u)nker and (i)mmortal. Using a qwerty keyboard if that's relevant.

My hotkeys are unchanged. While some people may be able to adapt to a complete reworking of their hotkeys, I can't. I'm fairly happy playing with the standard setup. I guess for people who have to look at their keyboards, or whose hands are too small to do certain things comfortably, changing up their keys can be helpful. It was definitely nice of blizzard to add this feature.

Sphase Mode /Transport Mode = E for Phase Prism's
Probe/Pylon are now P, since i never stopped using 0 and 9 for my Nexus + Blizzard made a mistake changing those to E. I mean Pylon does not even have the letter E in it for crying out loud.

Spacebar = Chrono because O, [, and ; was too hard to hit.

shift+ f2 f3 f4 now = save location once again. I think that covers my setup.

Random player, fyi.

Workers of all races now have the same hotkey (i picked D)

Upgrades now have hotkeys similar to the grid setup, only they're all on ASDF, not QWER. A fifth upgrade afair only exists in Starport's techlab, and i left it as C, because that's what I'm used to and G would be awkward. (yes i used to open banshees a lot when i got T)
The only thing I had to change back was Metabolic Boost (also known as 'ling speed'), because I really couldn't get my head around that not being on M.

I also clumped hotkeys that were too far on the right more to the left, like the Immortal or some of the hallucinations.

Active abilities stay the same, i have no intention of forcing myself to relearn those and possibly lose battles due to hitting the old key, just because "Storm should be on S because Storm".

We can change

creating group : ctrl+1

adding unit to a group: shift +1

but there is no :ctrl+shift1 i would like to bound that to spacebar + 1

I can't manage to get the following functioning:
"C" for cloaking and "Shift + C" for decloaking.

Does anyone know a workaround?

I think its impossible to do that, because the shift functionality is for control groups... but I may be wrong

Another Problem I encountered: If you set "train SCV" and "attack" both to "A", you've got a problem. As the planetary fortress can do both, at least one won't function (in case you want to train your SCV with "A", you do now have 53 units, whithout an attack hotkey).
It should be possible to deactivate certain hotkeys for certain units/buildings, without influencing all other units/buildings, which share the same function.

[image loading]

Yellow - Control Groups
+ Show Spoiler +
I use ` 1 Q W as my Macro groups
2 3 4 5 6 Y as Unit groups

Red - Camera Control
+ Show Spoiler +
I have disabled mouse scroll and use E S D F to move the camera across the map
I also use ALT + E S D F as set camera location
and use CTRL + E S D F as go to camera

Blue - Grid like commands
+ Show Spoiler +
R T is used for the most common keys. Such as Primary / Secondary abilities, Basic/Advanced building.
C V is used for Cloak / Uncloak, Load / Unload.

Together R T C V act as a grid to produce most Units and purchase most upgrades.

Z X G H are used for the rest of the buildings / actions.

Green - Unit Control
+ Show Spoiler +

A - Attack
Space - Stop
B - Patrol
H - Halt


Special buttons
+ Show Spoiler +
F3 - Lift Off / Land
Tab - Next Control Group
Caps - Previous Control Group
Alt - Acts like Shift to append
Shift - Acts like Ctrl to create


Using E S D F to control the camera seemed like second nature the instant I switched over to it. Relearning how to macro took a little adjusting but now it seems natural again to cycle through and build units.

As an added bonus this setup gives me quick access to 4 Camera locations as well all of the unit control groups are within easy reach. I have yet to figure out how to use cameras usefully.

I play on a laptop and positioning my hand to hit Ctrl is very awkward while Shift is very natural. For me appending is less common so I put it on Alt and put the create control group on shift.
