Those are infact in the back of the C&C Generals manual, Action Key Select a Unit Left Click Add a unit to selection Shift+L Click Select all on-screen units of a type E or double L Click Select previous/next unit Left/Right Arrow Keys Select all combat units Q As such there is no 'hot key' for the warfactory only for the Command Center which is the key 'H' I hope this helps, if not email me On Thu, 02 Oct 2003 23:47:40 +0100, Michael Lane <newsgroup.norca@blueyonder.co.uk> wrote: >Sorry, for C&C Generals. > >On Fri, 03 Oct 2003 03:24:25 +1000, Midnight <Midnight@Tacofox.net> >wrote: > >>hotkeys for what ?

Maybe he's talking about the building hotkeys? As in, select a worker and press "b" to build a barracks, or "p" for powerplant. Or select a barracks and press "r" for rebel or whatever? To find those out just hover your mouse over the icon of the building or unit you want to build. The hotkey will be the letter of the unit/building 's name that is in another colour. -- - Tim G.

Your reply explains my misunderstanding. I was looking at the chart believing that it was telling me that I could press the 'A' key and that it would select my existing War Factory so I could then select which unit to build. Thanks for all the replies. On Fri, 3 Oct 2003 15:52:00 -0400, "HeXetic" <hexemail@hottic.com> wrote: >Maybe he's talking about the building hotkeys?

For generals and the previous C&C games, I hit the "H" key to bring me to the first main base. At least in the beginning, I can go from far away in a battle to home real quick. I know what you mean about the other hot keys though. It would be good to know if its got that ability.
