Someone can accidentally double click a hotkey.

Then that person would have to be one real idiot, I don't see how hard it is to control oneself to just press it once, I can do it fine, so has every other person I've tested it with. The screen will be always centered there anyway.

Buildings don't really replace the feeling of real terrain.

I agree.

Quote from xYoshix
Also, no person wants their game to be harder to make than it needs to be.

I can see how that would apply to the average battle.net dumbass, hotkeying and pressing the hotkey is SO damn tough.

Quote from xYoshix
There's also a chance that your hotkey can get lost somehow.

Only if you hotkey another spider mine to another hotkey, they're never given.

Quote from xYoshix
Also... how do you stop moving?

I was thinking of 7 as stop/examine/pick up item.



None.

This has nothing to do with casting spells. It's about moving a unit based on hotkeys via the numpad. Without the numpad, using the numbers near the top of the keyboard is absurd.

The restrictions are:
No mac users.
No laptop users (Most laptops have no numpad).
The game will crash if it's your first match (bad map size, unless you actually want your screen to move around).

Combined, this is a serious limitation and not practical for Battle.net.

It shouldn't crash because one of the dimensions is a normal size.

ᴄʜᴇᴇsᴇ ɪᴛ!

most laptops have a numlock key which changes 789uiojkl into the numpad.
