    Starcraft 2 | Programmer Tips | Key Bindings

    General
    • Using 'Tab' when you have multiple unit types selected will cycle between them. 'Shift'+'Tab' will cycle backwards.
    • Hitting 'F1' selects an idle worker. 'Ctrl'+'F1' selects all idle workers.
    • You can keep HP bars turned on all the time from the gameplay options menu.
    • Turning on building grids in the options menu makes walling a lot easier.
    • 'Shift' queuing commands now work with stuff like siege and burrow.
    • It's also possible to 'Shift' queue waypoints now.
    • If you have multiple workers selected, you can issue multiple build commands and they'll each build one; extra workers will continue whatever they were doing.
    • Hitting 'Backspace' jumps between your town halls.
    • 'Ctrl'+'F' changes team colors to you = green, allies = yellow, and opponents = red.
    • 'Ctrl'+'Alt'+'F' brings up a framerate counter
    Terran
    • Calling down mules directly on minerals will allow them to auto-mine.
    • SCVs can be set to auto-repair by hitting 'Alt'+'R'.
    Zerg
    • Have your queens hotkeyed with your hatcheries so you can inject larvae without looking at your base.
    • You can give eggs their own move command so that the units will move there once they hatch, regardless of what the hatchery's rally point is.
    Protoss
    • Have one hotkey that just contains all your buildings, then you can chrono boost with by clicking on the building's wire frames without looking at your base.
    • Pressing 'W' selects all your warpgates (and excludes normal gateways).
    • You can tell units warping in to move before they're done warping in, and they'll move there as soon as they finish.
