Hey guys!
I personally find hotkeys immensely important for production and micro so I made my own hotkeys to replace the inefficient layout of the default hotkeys.
The main two goals was to have everything on the left side of the keyboard so you don't have to move your hand at all to access everything.
Second is to bring consistency with aach faction so unit and building types are grouped to the same production key. For example Rifle infantry and Primary Tanks are always A, Rocket infantry and supply Depos are always D.
It's not perfect, for example I didn't bother with upgrades but I think it's definitely an improvement and worth trying if you'd like to increase the efficiency of your production and macro.
In the attached file I have included my hotkeys for Zero Hour, Shockwave, Rise of the Reds and Contra. Note they will not work together, each mod you play must have the correct hotkeys to go with it.
For this reason I'd recommend having multiple copies of your Zero Hour directory each assigned with its own Mod and Hotkey setup.
Each has it's own readme for installation.
I hope someone finds them beneficial.
Cheers,
Machine.
