Build Gate Hotkey Suggestions,Similar to House and Mill

We can change mill design by keeping click default hotkey Q+WWWW for now.
And we can rotate gate by scroll key as well.
But why not rotate gate more instinctive by click W+ZZZZ or W+XXXX, so we can rotate gate in order more efficient without moving finger.

Moreover, a lot players have set scroll key for other functions(“build” or “go to”) .
When scroll up and down is used to “roate” and “build tower etc”,it will switch to tower other than rotate( Only overlap on DE edition) ,and ctrl+scroll or alt+scroll to rotate gate is worse idea than above.

By the way ,add “select all markets hotkeys” please,mass trading carts is necessary every team game .Even all monastery have a key . Thanks!

In UserPatch when you are placing a gate, rotation takes priority over all other hotkeys on wheel. DE could really use that.

I switched scroll wheel to rotate and ctrl + scroll wheel for zooming. Works good for me…

Sadly,they fix zoom problem for you,but forget to fix building hotkey conflict.

Yes PLEASE let gate rotation take precedence over building hotkeys. Thought this was finally fixed when reading the latest patch note, but still not possible…
