Enable hot keys for all tools in the construction menus and for general actions

More Hotkeys (additional information for 2.6 alpha)

Enable hot keys for all tools in the construction menus and for general actions

-=Switch=-

Configuration file: morehotkeys

Command line: -YH

-=Description=-

In addition to the new hotkeys listed on MoreHotkeys, the 2.6 alpha series provides hotkeys for the other two construction toolbars, and the road and landscape generation toolbars in the scenario editor.

For the other two construction toolbars, the general pattern for the road and rail toolbars was applied, but some buttons have two hotkeys:

When numbers appear both above and below a button in this image, either key may be used. This image assumes the default American hotkey list. Most notably, if the backslash is not the key you use to toggle the purchase-land tool in the other two toolbars, don't use it here either.

In addition, the standard hotkeys can be used on the road construction toolbar in the scenario editor, and most buttons in the Land Generation toobar have hotkeys:

For lack of anything more obvious, the num-pad was used to assign these shortcuts. In addition, <nowiki>[5]</nowiki> may also be used to toggle the dynamite tool. Again, the default American hotkey list is assumed.

When both this toolbar and the road toolbar are open, the road toolbar captures all keypresses.

MoreHotkeys was contributed by Oskar Eisemuth, and these extensions were added  by Dale ))McCoy[[]]McCoy[[.
