    • and taking advantage of the fact that u are discussing unit behavior, I believe most of us prefer our armies to capture buildings rather than attack them, as they used to in the prev alpha. That way, it was easier to understand whether there were enemy units within our units’ attack range. Now, in scenarios with many units where we have to do many actions quickly, it can sometimes be confusing to know whether our units are attacking enemy troops or committing suicide by attacking buildings instead of the enemy army. I would also like to point out that, personally, i dont like that melee units always prioritize attacking siege units. It forces us to micro more than necessary.
    • I think it would be more convenient to have a preset number of units rather than having the currently selected group split into fractions. We already have a hotkey dedicated to ordering a single unit within the selected group, but it would be useful to choose the number of units we want to command from that same group, so we wouldnt have to isssue instructions to them one by one. Within the hotkey settings, an option could be added to select the number of units to command at once. For example, if I have a group of women selected, lets say 27 and I want to build 3 farms, pressing a certain hotkey would send 5 of them to build one farm. pressing it again would send another 5, and repeating it once more would send the last 5. This way, id only need to give 3 orders instead of 15. If this feature is implemented, i suggest allowing us to choose up to five preset unit amounts to command at once. In my case, they would most likely be: 1, 5, 10, 20, 30.
    • Perhaps for Release 29 we can add an opt-in feature that reports players' hotkey binds to our server, and then near the end of R30's dev cycle we can review the information and perhaps set new defaults for R30+.
    • Oh... I misunderstood, I thought we were making new keybinds. Anyways... My keybind preference for now is: [Name (Default) > Preference] Show Status Bar (Tab) > Period Select Next Idle Unit  (Period) > Tab Attack Move(Unit Only) [Ctrl + Q] > Ctrl Push Order To Front (Null) > R Reset Camera (R) > Ctrl + R Call To Arms (Null) > Q Patrol (P) > Ctrl + Q Order One Unit (Alt) > E Back To Work (Y) > Ctrl + E Select Non Military Unit (Alt + Y) > Ctrl + Alt At the end of the day rating is just a number, have fun.
    • Okay, I remember the code for that, just checking.
