Grid Keys - Hotkey to select units of same type conflict with build menu #2688

Description

It's not possible to use hotkeys to select factories of the same type if the factories have build menu hotkeys tied to "Q" and "W".

Expected Behaviour

There should be a way to select all factories of the same type using hotkeys.

Actual Behaviour

When using Grid Keys, the only options for selecting all units of a type are "Q" (for selecting units on screen) or "CTRL+W" (for selecting all units). For factories like the Vehicle Plants with hotkeys already bound to "Q" and "W", it's not possible to select all Vehicle Plants via any hotkeys.

Reproduction steps

  1. Build two tier 1 Vehicle Plants.
  2. Select one of the Vehicle Plants.
  3. Pressing "Q" makes the plant adds a Beaver to the production queue instead of selecting all Vehicle Plants on screen.
  4. Pressing "CTRL+W" makes the plant removes a Pincer from the production queue instead of selecting all Vehicle Plants.

There are quite a few bad interactions like this with lab hotkeys, unfortunately. I have some plans to change things around here, but it's not the highest-priority work currently.

Gotcha. Sounds good! I just wanted to raise this in case it wasn't known.
