    The keybinding "select idle fabbers" selects ALL idle fabbers. Is there a way to select one, and by pressing it again you each time add another?

    Preferably the idle fabber closest to the mouse location

    I thought it only selected on screen. Just zoom in, press f and shift click all of the undesirable ones?

    It selects all idle fabbers on screen, but if you quickly double-tap it your camera will cycle through them. The current problem with the hotkey is this.

    Zoom in, while all your doxes get bombed and all your engies get raided :p The game is micro intensive, no time to zoom in for stuff like this.

    Micro intensive? Paha, this game is nowhere near micro intensive. It's macro intensive. ;)

    Are you guys joking? YES, the game is both micro and macro intensive. If it isn't then you don't play competitive enough imo

    I agree except "competitive enough" sounds likely to cause some controversy. It is true though that micro is very important at the top of the ladder.
