I
play
with
a
lot
of
clicking,
frequently
box
selecting
and
line
moving
a
lot
of
units,
as
well
as
literally
clicking
on
all
the
buildings
in
the
HUD
to
build
them.
I
started
using
hotkeys
to
allow
my
mouse
clicks
to
be
more
effective,
like
CTRL+Z
which
selects
all
of
the
units
you
own
of
the
same
type
of
current
selection
and
CTRL+X
which
does
the
same
but
only
for
units
within
camera
FOV.
AreaMex(
default
'w'
these
days)
is
also
an
important
mainstay.
Some
more
interesting
hotkeys
I
have
are
"Repeat
Toggle"
'CTRL+R',
"Set
Build
priority
to
high"
to
'CTRL+H',
"Set
Manuver"
to
'CTRL+H',
"Set
Hold
Position"
to
'H',
"Set
Target"
to
'T',
"Remove
Target"
to
'CTRL+T',
"AreaCloak
state
toggle"
to
'U',
and
"Gravity
Gun
Polarity"
to
'U'.
These
are
things
I
want
to
often
do,
but
are
so
much
a
hassle
to
click
on
the
HUD.
I
can
use
these
abilities
wihtout
interfering
in
my
selections
and
movement
comands
from
my
mouse
now.
This
doesn't
really
increase
my
APM,
but
it
increases
what
I
would
say
is
my
Effective
APM.
Try
and
streamline
your
process
of
issuing
commands
to
your
units
with
hotkeys.
Because
I
have,
I
can
spend
more
time
issuing
move
orders
for
my
units.

Also,
you
may
want
to
look
into
default
unit
states.
Anything
in
this
game
you
own
you
can
set
to
start
with
specific
unit
states.
Shields
can
be
set
to
hold
position,
ultimatums
can
be
built
with
hold
fire
state,
ETC.
with
the
default
unit
states.
I
have
a
small
little
optimization
where
all
my
metal
extractors
are
set
to
High
Priority
so
in
a
crashing
metal
economy
my
mexes
get
built
first.
If
you
find
yourself
always
changeing
a
cirtain
class
of
units'
unitstates,
probably
want
to
modify
the
default
unit
states
to
save
time
microing
them
in
game.

Sad
story,

click
on
HUD
for
all
buildings
except
mex.
