I hope this isn't a really dumb question. Is there a way to assign a hotkey to toggle repeat build on factories? I find myself having to do this often, and it would improve my APM if I could do this with the keyboard.

Anihilnine,

Thanks for the great work.

(How) can we make a shortcut for selection filter? E.g. I have a shortcut that filters current selection for land,air,sea. Can we make custom shortcuts that do the same? My first one would be "filter selection for land scouts." Naturally Selection Sort makes doing this action much faster than it used to be; however I am shit with the mouse and therefore rely heavily on keypresses.

There is nothing for that at the moment. You could make it if u were into programming. However consider this:

1. There is an out of the box key called something like "cycle unit types" that switches between land /air / sea each time you hit it.

2. The selection deprioritizer mod automatically filters out units by type so if you have a mixed land/air selection it only selects the land ones in the first place.
