HOLD DOWN SHIFT AND CLICK!! make it a PRIORITY QUEUE!!.. put it at THE FRONT OF THE LIST!.. end of argument.

May be you can calm down first ?
I don't understand your tip. How do you set up a priority queue ?

Imagine I am your mother and you want to explain her how to do ...

It is not as difficult as you tryt to mean. But if I sent this link, it is only because Thomcaster asked me to send you his post.
Since I am bored by al the stupid arguments I saw here and there, I am not trying to continue any discussion.
Do it if you want, end of me here ( I hope, unless someone want again to explain me the life... )

You would get 5 units at the end of the queue instead.

blah, pick a button that isn't used.. alt??

I mean as "add" it as a feature...

I was just tired of reading all the horsecrap...

I knowctrl adds 20, shift adds 5, and if you push both it adds 100...

but alt??

men, maybe something like middlemouse??

and make it put it in front...

that'd be interesting...

it already does that.

and yes, it uses alt

sadly, it doesn't work with construction queues at the moment, only factories - probably because alt is used for box-building - if someone could make a patch to put it in for construction queues, that would be most excellent

but i want box building as well.

What about using middle click for queue insertion in all cases?

Peet · Post by **Peet** » 14 Oct 2006, 01:37

Because that's already used for mouse look mode.

woops, forgot about that.

Are there any modifiers or buttons left?

How about binding the extra shutdown button some keyboards got to that?

Peet · Post by **Peet** » 14 Oct 2006, 02:34

the TURBO button!!1!one!

...backspace would be good, actually makes sense.

I think a useful feature would be an Unlimited build queueueue thing, that tells the factory to never stop building some unit unless you tell it to.

The repeat function does that.
