Post Important Hotkey Optimization.
Multi-hotkeys for multiple items.

Say if I have a push, pull, and hitchhiker tractor, pressing the hotkey will switch between them like the 'E' button switches weapons. Same with solar panels. Radars.

And an option for un-equipping and re-equipping multiple items. So I can put an OL, a diffuser, a panel, and a lighthouse all on one hotkey and turn them off/on as a group. This is an idea for chaining multiple different tweaks together.

So to recap, hotkeys that switch between all items assigned, and hotkeys that activate and deactivate all items assigned to them.

Really? Just no reaction whatsoever to this idea? No good, no bad?

I would like being able to bind multiple items to the same hotkey, but I don't think I'd use the other thing too much. It would be a little bit useful for tractors but that's really it as far as I can see.

This + my hotkey idea = epicness. Let it be done.

I'm not sure if it's needed or even better than what we currently have. If you have two tractors and you assign them to hotkeys 1 and 2, then hitting 2 while 1 is equipped should swap them, and vice-versa.

It's needed so we can use more hot keys more efficiently.

With my suggestion, you would only need hotkey 1. Pressing it would just switch them. How can that not be better?

I wouldn't mind just a tractor key that cycled through tractors, but that's about all i could see it being useful for.
