People love youtube video's
Maybe that would help get the idea across convincingly.
If you dont upload one i will PM you bad words and upload my own and claim that you stole the idea.
but by the time that happens i will have edited TL cache so this post doesnt exist.
Dont test me

does this effect any other part of gameplay? like for my other unit groups will it zoom to them when i select them?
if not this is marvelous

I lack the software to do this, taking the credit will only show how dishonoring of a person you are.
However if you would like to help, you can pm me the video, I will include it, and give you proper credit.

Once the cycle is complete. If you double tap another hotkey it will end the follow current selection button. You can also click it after the injects to turn it off.

Just explaining/showing the process is good. I agree plagiarizing sucks, but i am a man of my word and will give you proper credit. If you want to comment anymore about this please take it to pms.

Did you really just tell Chill to refrain from commenting?
I think you should use a term less vague than "queen meltdown", it seems to be causing a lot of confusion for readers. Neat idea, though.

obviously 1 queen per hatch is hard to get

why don't you guys just pick protoss instead?

I dint mean anything by it, all do respect. (manly targeted to others posting nonsense.)
This thread is quickly filling up with stupidness
When its a legit good idea.

Is larva injecting this difficult that people are modifying hotkeys and coming up with complex systems to do it?
I don't quite get this method, and perhaps it is a bit too far, but injecting is so important why not modify? For example the backspace method seems to be the ideal method, since instead of "remembering" when to inject you can just spam it every bit so that you can gauge when to actually inject (see the bars above hatches as you cycle through the queens). Only problem is, with the default settings, if you have Queens on 4 or 6 then you have to jump your hand a bit to reach the Shift+Backspace on the right side of the keyboard.
Anyways, my hotkey is just Queens on 4, Inject on v, Backspace on E. I find this so easy because your left hand is already there and if you have that many queens, you can use both your index/middle finger to hit the E (backspace) key to cycle (to lessen stress on one finger and to be faster), sort of like trilling when you play the piano.
(You said "complex" so you're probably just talking about the OP's method specifically but just wanted to share my method to others too ^^)

a red tag shouldn't mean that you can BM an idea just because you wanted slightly higher post count.
Mechanics are a very important thing in being a good player, analysing your own hotkey usage, and figuring out ways of making it more efficient has become pretty popular recently.. and for good reason.
any other poster would have been warn/temp banned for what is essentially flamebaiting/trolling Zerg players and suggesting that its an easy mechanic that requires no thought or planning to execute flawlessly.
It's not quite "are you serious" but lead by example you know..

Just confirming that this cute little trick does, in fact, work.
Making a video right now ^^

Forever to be known as Bitter style injecting!
sry chef.
Thanks to Bitter for testing/confirming/reporting though!

Can someone rewrite the original post? I don't think English is his first language. No offense!

Please follow your own advice.
I'll try this trick when I can. I wonder how the camera movement will be? Can't wait to check out the video.

Here's how you do it:
1) Go to the Hotkeys tab, and set "Follow Current Selection" to something.
2) Press "Follow Current Selection" hotkey (It's a toggle)
3) Select queens
4) Press V (or whatever hotkey you use for it)
5) Hold shift and spam backspace+click
6) Turn off "Follow Current Selection" (press hotkey)
This method means that you will no longer cycle through your hatcheries without queens at them.

Yep, but then again the guy did make a blatant insult "stop casting" or something like that. Although Chill's comment was quite confuzzling too, considering that something as important as larvae-injecting should be as efficient as possible. Although ideally it would be great if no one would BM at all, according to TL's rules they say they try to make everything good but in the end it is still "their house" and we have to play by their rules.
