My units are dancing all over the map now, as shift is incorporated in alot of hotkeys
I hope there is a way to disable this in the settings, I can only see this being useful in very minor situations
Pretty sure alot of people are having similar problems
Is it something happening since recent patch, I also experienced the same problem.
yes and it seems alot of people has been affected, hopefully they turn this feature optional
I don’t get how this is a problem
doesn’t this only affect things when you are placing a gather point?
you hold shift to produce five units at the same time. so if you do so, you also set multiple gather points now. to toggle this as an optional feature would be helpful for sure 
The only two things I have to say about it, is that in minimap still you can’t assign more gather points than the initial, and multiple gather points (assigned regularly) do not show exes on minimap, like it shows when you have assigned one gather point.
will this issue get adressed any time? its is so annoying tbh
Good.
Why this? You have to right-click on the ground to set a new gather point. How about try not to right-click on the ground before you have deselected that production building? To your army you might want to give those move orders.
the thing is that i hold shift for my “select all barracks/ranges/staples etc.” and then hold shift to produce units x5. i usually dont put my finger away from the shift button when i choose my gather point. after 6000 hours this is deeply rooted in my muscle memory and i have such a hard time to release the shift button before selecting the gather point.
