Yeah, Locutus told me... and while he was in the process of doing so, I did Google it... left me in very, very little doubt as to what area does the word come from .

Thanks HalfLotus for the update, gonna integrate those ones into my post. Just will have to ask the MFO guys for a permission, I believe.

I think I originally posted about using ctrl+shift+1-9 to change the data display, however, I was wrong, it's alt+shift+1-9, not ctrl. The most useful three for me are 1 for score, 2 for economic units, and 4 for military units.

i really like the interface especially after the disaster that c&c was but one thing doesnt seem to work. when u set consecutive rallypoints which end in an group newly created units seem to follow the waypoints but instead of joining the group after the last waypoint run to the notheast end of the map. i did no extensive testing yet so this might be unrelated but will do so tomorrow. another thing i don get is that u are not able to stack orders of special units (spys/scout/gen). u can give them many waypoints and let them perform a single task with many waypoints afterwards but no 2 tasks, ie go place informer there then go place informer there. a thing to remember when remapping the hotkeys is that u should also check variations(+shift/+str) of ur remapped keys otherwise u could try to stack some orders with shift ingame but end up with some totally different and sometimes amazing effects

Is there a hot key that you can press to make your army retreat/walkbackwards, in formation while facing the enemy? Know what I mean, I tihnk I read it somwehere but I cant remember, Im really tired right now and am gonna hit the sack, Ill check ur answers in the morn. Thanks in advance! Later.

[Paradigma11]

there is but dont know if or how its mapped originally. its basically one step backwards.

[KBS_SpaZ]

If I understand what you are looking for correctly the answer is about six posts up by HalfLotus....Ctrl + Down is formation backwards

Pressing Ctrl+1-0 or Ctrl+F1-F8 while nothing is selected creates a hotkey for the current camera position and zoom level.

Nacht - outstanding, how did you get to that one?

[Caesar Brad]

...you can change the camera positions?
