Any Keyboard scrollers here?

wasd autohotkey script + grid keys + tacmap bound to mouse button all the way. i use shift to disable the script when pressed to be able to use both wasd camera movement and grid keys at the same time. took a while to get used to but i haven't looked back ever since.

I don't use the tact map, instead I find myself clicking the squad portraits on the top right to jump to a specific unit or reinforce. Jumping to the retreat point (ambulance) to reinforce everything in the area is something I frequently do. Use F1-F4 hotkeys to build units is a lifesaver too. Brits get F4 for Forward Assembly and OKW get F2 for medic truck which is awesome. I wish I could bind my Ambu to F6 or something.

I have map scroll speed set to very high, something I brought over from when I played Starcraft 2. That way you don't have to move your mouse to the edges as much. For small map adjustments, I use MMB to readjust.

I use default hotkeys too since I'm used to T retreat and R to reinforce. Never got used to grid hotkeys in SC2. I used default hotkeys in Dawn of War 2 too.

you could hold ctrl and press 3, then you would make the ambulance control group 3, then whenever you double-tap 3 you will center on the ambulance. For squads when you give them a control group you will automatically select them when you press the number.

I give my engineers the 2 control group. When I pull a damaged vehicle from the frontline I can just hit 2 and then the vehicle and the engineers will go to repair without me even having to see them on the screen.

Oh and also if you click a squad while holding ctrl you will select all squads of the same type. If you hold shift you will add squads to the selection. (I.e. you could bind a grenadier and a panzergrenadier to control group 1 without them having to be next to each other.)
