<div class="IPBDescription">2 things</div> First Question:
If you have selected something e.g structure or medpack to drop on your Commander screen and for whatever reason change your mind how do you "de-select" it? Whereabouts do you click on the interface or what key do you press?
At the moment I'm having to choose medpack or ammo to drop even if I dont want too. This is annoying and a waste of res.
Also how do u de-select all marines from waypoints?
2nd Question:
Exactly how do you use the commander hotkeys particularly for medpxax and ammo?
All valid responses will be greatly appreciated <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

If i select a medpack and dont want to give it away, i start to look, that should i build any structure and then switch it to building. But if you have selected a building and dont want to place it, then i suggest that you switch to ammo/med and drop it somewhere (it only cost 2 rp).
Once i accidentily dropped a prototype lab in the middle of offence chambers, while i was trying to give waypoint. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> What a waste <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
You can de-select marines by clicking one of your structures, but you cant remove waypoints. (you can only change their place).
About those key setting, i use "a" for ammo and "alt" for medpack.
I pressed that "add reply" button several times and nothing happened.....
oh yeah, most of the hotkeys can be defined using the standard NS setup (including medpacks and ammo)
I noticed when i select an upgradeable building i cant switch to the normal build menus
That doesn't work for me. If i right click two things might happen:
1. It drops that medpack
2. Wp appears in that place and i still have that medpack in my "hand"
That doesn't work for me neither <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
There comes that little box what says: "Invalid order", but it doesn't make that medpack go away.

Works for me, and what I've been doing for a while now.
