Hotkeys are Intuitive and Helpful

from Sins Forums
I find it particularly helpful that the position of buildings and abilities displayed correspond to the keyboard layout for the hotkeys (QWERT and ASDFG, respectively). This is definitely a tool when you're doing mass planet upgrades. I would like a way to tab through my colonies a bit easier though (all planets only appear in the empire list under a star sometimes, and I don't know why; this is the only time I can tab through colonies when all have been selected).

Totally agree -- my first reaction to "Move" being keyed to "D" was a big "huh?", then I checked the other keys, noting the positions, and got it. I'd heard of setups like that, just never seen them as the default... and I love it.

Kudos, Ironclad.

Do you have some of the filtering options on (the orange icons in the top left of the UI)?

I experimented with that, but didn't see a change. When doing the options though, I changed to the context-based empire view and was very pleased because this is a "feature" I have wanted but was already there!
