Trigger Event: Switching between control groups and select all military buildings or control group where military buildings are selected and building units.
Basically, I use ‘Select All Military Buildings’ to add them into a control group. Once that’s done, I cycle between multiple control groups and build units as needed. Since the last update, it often shows only one type of unit available to build, with no hotkey displayed (as shown in the picture I sent).”
Repro Steps: I have been able to repro the same issue in the custom game.
Create multiple military buildings of different types.
Select them all into one control group using ‘Select All Military Buildings’.
Build units either from the control group containing the military buildings or by using the ‘Select All Military Buildings’ hotkey, depending on what is easier at the moment.
Occasionally, a bug will occur (my screenshot is from a custom game, as I had no time to take one during a ladder match).”
It is really broken. Sometimes hotkeys dissapear, sometimes it is like it shift to the first type of building of the group. The net result is that hotkeys can’t be used.
When you have have a partially constructed building with small percentage completed then it does the shift to the first type of bulding, again with no hotkeys available.
As a terrible workaround one can iterate over the buildings and start creating units with hotkeys, but then again the group shift occurs randomly turning the hotkeys useless.
Please fix this soon, it is one of key mechanics of units production!!
I would agree for this to be a very important issue to fix as it hinders the core mechanics of an RTS (unit production). I basically stopped playing AOM with my friends yesterday because this bug annoyed me.
This is pretty bad bug, cant train units on mid game sometimes they work and sometimes hotkeys wont show and if u want to train units u have to select builds one by one, last update make this bug.
Yup, litterlay can’t play ranked right now. I guess i need to play campaign until it get fixed. It is a bug that is extremely annoying for us who have one control groupe for all our miltary buildings.
Happening to me here today. Having multiple different military production buildings selected at once will ocassionally cause the hotkeys to dissappear and show in the order of only one of the buildings, seems to be totally random whenever it happens.
Only work around for now is to deselect and select them back, and try to produce before it eventually breaks again, usually after some random amount of seconds.
I guess we will be forced to build all production next to each other ordered by type and use it without hotkeys…
