Queue orders for things that arent even being built yet.
I think it would be really awesome if we could give orders for things that are just in the queue, like, if you queue up a antinuke pressing a special button you could select it and order it to make missiles in advance... It would be also good if it worked of factories, like, if I had a unit being built and one or more on queue I could give orders to those, in any group I wanted...

I have wished this also.

This could be done with Lua build orders, but I do not think it's possible otherwise. It'd be nice if the Units were created, with 1 health, as a result of build-orders being queued, but I think it'd lead to rampant exploits- you could just place a hundred buildings in the middle of your enemy's base, for example. Better to do this through Lua, with some sort of delayed-assignment system for orders. Dunno whether KDR's done anything like this yet for THIS, as I haven't had time to see it yet, unfortunately.

A widget would be best for this, yes. Spawning stuff immediately means your enemy can shoot at it immediately, that changes the gameplay a lot.

I think having stuff spam immediatly would be too unpratical... so I hope there is someone whilling to do this with lua :)
