Sub Priority Up/Down Key bindings

[tomcatsquatch]

Allow raising and lowering of the sub-priority of an action to be bound to set keys after you have selected the tool/ building, before confirming the order.

In my case the nav buttons on the side of my mouse would be perfect for this and far more streamlined than selecting the tool then having to mouse over to the sub-priority level.

Hm, actually in some cases you can use the keyboard numbers 1-9. However, it works only for changing sub-priority settings(p), sweep(k) and mop(m). For example you click on sub-priority(keyboard p) => click 1-9 to select what the sub-priority  should be => click around to change commands. You can also sweep and mop and use the keyboard 1-9 to select subpriority. Unfortunately it doesn't work for dig/wrangle/harvest I'd love to have all commands work with 1-9, that'd definitely speed up sub-priority work.

Agreed. Using the num pad is quicker.

Actually, just being able to set all priorities with the numpad keys would be preferable. Not just tasks but buildings too.

The problem is that now the numbers are linked also to the building menus (1234...90-=), which is also very useful... so if they become linked to priorities too, you'll have to click escape or something else to cancel the building and then start building something new. That could be annoying(although priorities are also convenient to have). What I'm missing are shortcuts for building/unit  commands, such as move to, enable/disable building, copy settings (it has its shortcut - "\", but the command itself is not always available   ), deconstruct, sweep, cancel building ...

I wans't talking about construction priority. I was talking about buildings allready built. When I click a constructed building, being able to set priority to 9 trough numpad would be useful.

I know what you're talking about, I'm saying that currently if you click a building, the number keys are already used for something - to open the construction menu.
