Red Alert 2 Hotkeys
Red Alert 2 Hotkeys Rating: 4,6/5 1824 votes
So without further ado, Wilko's Hotkey Guide: The basic principle is that I've moved the 'Macro Keys' (Macro-Management Keys) down by 2 fields so that the keys are next to each other. Okay, now for the explanation: The colored buttons are actively used in the game. The colors indicate with what finger I use the button: Red for the thumb. I recently picked up red alert 2 (and yuri's revenge) again, after more than 10 years of break from it. I mostly play against computers on default maps, however i'm having trouble beating even 3 brutal computers when playing in the centre of map, especially in yuri's revenge.
Basic hotkeys:
1. Expand and deploy “D”
2. Warning State “G”
3. Disperse to avoid crushing “X”
4. Forced attack on CTRL
5. Forced Mobile “ALT”
6. Options menu “ESC”
7. Formation, click the corresponding button to jump to the team “CTRL + F1…”
8. Similar Forces “T”
9. Path Point “Z”
10. Satellite warning of an attack press “space” to jump to a designated location
11. The troops cheered “C”
12. Architectural Page “Q”
13. Weapons Page “W”
14. Infantry Page “E” 1
5. Vehicle Page “R”
16. Elite Force “Y”
17. Map Return to Base “H” or “F1”
1. Deployment Object/Force D
Note: American soldiers sit down and stand up, select the soldiers, press D. The Expansion Model of Radiation Engineers
2. Guard against the current regional G keeping alert in the region. If an enemy comes, it can fire automatically.
3. Mobile Attack Point Selection Force Press Ctrl + Shift + Point Selection Force or Area Rotating Red and Green Arrows That External Success
Combining the Z-key can control the unit to destroy local troops or selected buildings according to the specified order. At the same time, the unit will destroy all mobile troops in the vicinity, but using the Z-key alone can not achieve this effect.
4 Dispersion X is commonly used in tank fire. If the other side commands the tank to crush your auxiliary forces, then using X-key can be a good way to avoid crushing. At the same time, continuous movement can effectively attract the other side’s tank fire, make their muzzle shift constantly, and suppress the firing frequency of the other side.
Note: The equivalent of nine buttons on the control bar below the screen
5 Forced fire, hold down the Ctrl key, indicate the target with the cursor, and then left-click. At this time, the mouse arrow changes from green to red, whether attacking the other side or their side is effective.
Note: Attacks targets that your troops have not previously attacked (within range)
6. Forced movement, hold down the Alt key, indicate the target with cursor, and then left-click; with the use of Z key can be effectively rolled, especially with vehicles against American airborne soldiers can show better results.
7. Options menu ESC
8. Formation Ctrl + 1 – 9
Note: After selecting a unit (person, vehicle) to operate, the next point of compilation of the number can be used to control the selection of the team. Double-click the number key on the keyboard (123… 0) Can make the field of vision immediately shift to the selected troops, better than the F key.
9. Alliance with the selected camp A
Note: First select the person you want to ally with, then press A
10. Choosing the same type of troop T
Note: Select your screen and nearby similar forces to click the T key to collect all the same forces in the current field of vision, and double-click the T key to select all the same forces in the game, three-click the T key can speed up the wear and tear of the keyboard.–
11. Talk with all the warfare watchers (multi-person mode) press Enter to turn on the conversation function. After entering the message, press Enter to send the message and press the right mouse button to cancel the message.
Suggestion: Delete the unfamiliar input method before entering the game, leave only English (must) and some commonly used input method (one). Press Ctrl + space (or Ctrl + Shift) before the conversation to switch to Chinese conversation.
Note: In Chinese, most shortcuts are invalid.
12. Talk to all allies (multi-person mode)
Press the Home button to open the conversation function, enter the message, then press Enter to send the message, press the right mouse button to cancel the message.
Press Enter and Backspace keys to publish information in the game. The difference between them is that the information released by the former method can be seen by all players, while the latter can only be seen by allies.
13. Layout beacons
Press the B key, press Enter to enter the message, then press Enter to send the message, press Del to cancel the message. The function of the B key is to set the spiritual beacon, which is to prompt allies or lock the screen. It’s best to use it in combination with CTrl+F1~F4 to facilitate the transfer of vision.
Note: Equivalent to the spindle button under the screen
14. Enter the Path Point Mode to Select Troops
Press the Z key, set the path point, release the Z key and let the troops follow the path.
Note: Equivalent to the line button under the screen
15. Setting a collection point
Select barracks, chariot factories, shipyards or duplication centers. Empty fingers select assembly points on the battlefield.
Note: The soldiers from the barracks you set up will automatically come to this point and gather together. If you want to cancel, first click on the building in the middle and then press the s key.
16. Go to Radar Event Site
Space key
Note: If you have just exchanged fire with your opponent in the middle of a rich mine in the ice sky, you can still see the location of the exchange of fire using space within a period of time after the battle.
17. All troops applaud C.
18. Open the diplomatic menu Tab, and then click in the indicator box below the allies, and point it into a semi-circle or a circle, that is, alliance.
19. Follow the lens F to follow the selected troops.
20. Guard designated point Ctrl + Alt + selected area
21. Guard Force Ctrl + Alt + Selection Force
22. Defensive Architecture Ctrl + Alt + Selected Architecture
Shield-like instructions are successful. If the tank is not very skilled in micromanipulation, it can control the auxiliary force Alt+ctrl+tank, so that the tank can follow the auxiliary force wherever it goes.
23. Building Page Q When the building is finished, using this key can make the building down faster.
24. Weapons Page W
25. Infantry Page E
26. Vehicle Page R
28. Next Force M
29. Last Force N
30. Choose all the units in the game that can be used to fight.
31. Choosing unit Y based on elitism is to differentiate units according to the stars of tanks.
32. Force U is usually chosen when tanks are engaged in battle with life value as the criterion. Forces with less life value are selected to drag them backward and make full use of the firepower advantage of each tank.
33. Adjustment of Formed Forces

37. Setting up bookmarks
Ctrl + F1 ~ F4
38. Go to the bookmark location
F1 ~ F4
Note: Bookmarks can be set up in important places, that is to say, the fixed areas in the game can be framed with shortcut keys, which makes the shift of perspective more convenient and fast.
For example: after ascertaining the location of the opponent’s base, set up a bookmark, want to see what the opponent is making bookmarks, the screen view will immediately transfer to the opponent’s base.
39. Multiplex on-line shouting language
F5 – F12 is generally not recommended for use, and can not be used when suspected of personal attacks stand-alone.
40. Screenshots in the game
Ctrl + C (the captured pictures can be found in the Red Police Program folder). If you are using the screenshots in the game for battle reporting, then I suggest you download a professional screenshots software, because the format allowed when uploading pictures is Jpg, the format of Ctrl + C screenshots is pcx, which is very inconvenient to convert.
Following are the revenge shortcuts for Red Police 2, some of which are also applicable to Red 2:
A: Click on players and make alliances. It is suggested that we should not wait to see the allies before alliance, because after alliance, the maps explored by the allies can be shared. If we don’t alliance until we see the allies, it is not only easy to be hurt by mistake. It also wastes a lot of time exploring maps. It is strongly recommended that an alliance be formed soon after the start, when the construction is completed.
B: Warning beacons to alert allies. Can cooperate with the conversation key. Select, press the Del key, cancel. Some versions do not have this feature. Especially when many people are connected, it is more useful. For example, if you have no combat effectiveness, or have been completely defeated, the whole picture has been opened, and the Allies do not have the whole picture, you can help the Allies indicate the location of the box, as well as the location of the base. After clicking on the beacon, you can enter some prompt language, such as “Red Home!”
C: Cheers, momentum.
D: Can make American soldiers, radiation engineers, etc. squat or stand; Tank deformation; Euripian Soviet MiG helicopter D, can build small artillery. However, many services only have D functionality in later versions. You can try more.
E: Barracks.
F: Focus tracking. This function should be mastered in particular. Many friends who just started playing Red Police forgot to send their troops there. At this time, F function can play a very important role. For example, if you want to know where Formation 1 is, you can press 1, then press F, and you can switch to Formation 1 immediately.
G: Warning. Don’t neglect it. After G, the range of sensing and the initiative of attacking will be obviously strengthened.
H: Switch the screen directly to the location of the main base, even if it has been retracted or driven elsewhere.
K: Maintenance mode, left mouse building.
L: Sale mode, left mouse building.
M: Next Force M. N: Last Force N. p: Select all combat units on the screen. If you press two P’s in a row, you will select all combat units under your jurisdiction.
Q: Building Bar; Mobile Attack.
R: Battle car production column.
S: Cancel the order. When the tank is assigned to a certain place, if you want to cancel the order, you can press S. The dispatched troops will immediately stop and stand by.
T: All the troops of the same type (including non-combat units) you currently choose on the full screen. If you press T twice in a row, you will elect all the forces of the same type (including non-combat units) under your jurisdiction that you currently choose.
U: Choose troops based on life value.
W: Special Building (Weapon) Column.
X: The troops dispersed. (It’s very useful to prevent troops from being crushed, so he doesn’t have to position soldiers one by one.)
Y: Select troops based on elite.
Z: Path.
5: Opinions are in the middle (not much use).
Space: Switch to the event (beacon) location.
Alt: Tank rolling mode; special functions of aircraft.
Ctrl: Containment attack. When attacking, the combat forces can attack the target at the farthest distance. This is especially useful when our troops are small and the enemy’s defense is strong.
Direction key: micro screen direction.
Home: Talk to your allies, type in sentences, and press Enter.
Enter or End: Talk to everyone, enter sentences, and press Enter.
F5 ~ F12: Multi-person online shouting language.
CTRL + numeric key: Number the selected troops.
CTRL + F1, F2… Geographical Number. It’s very useful, especially in the early days when there’s no radar. Select the region, press F1, F2…
CTRL + shift: mobile attack. Tank wartime, strongly recommended!
CTRL + Alt: Protection. Select troops to protect other forces, buildings, or an area
Unit alert status:
ALT+A: Aggression mode. Units will automatically fire on enemy troops and buildings and will not return to their original positions.
ALT + S: Alert mode. Units will automatically attack enemies (or aggressive buildings) in their field of view and return to their original positions.
ALT+D: Stick to the model. Units will automatically attack enemies (or aggressive buildings) within range and will not move.
ALT+G: Ceasefire mode. Units will not attack automatically, even if they are hit.
A: Mobile attack, equivalent to CTRL + SHIFT in RA2. At that time, CTRL + SHIFT could suffer a lot, especially the notorious input method switching problem.
S: Stop. This is familiar.
D: Backward. Some units can use this function, such as tank backing. Use this time to avoid turning around (this thing in YR, the fortress is not happy)
G: Forced movement. This bond acts as ALT in RA2, which is used for rolling.
H: Back to the main base.
ALT: It’s the Z key in RA2. Set the path point.
CTRL + Z: Planning mode, which is equivalent to setting paths in RA2 according to the flag on the interface. (Press CTRL+Z again to exit the plan mode, then the unit will move along the given path.)
X: Disperse. I’m familiar with it.
C: Maintenance, equivalent to the K key in RA2.
Z: Sell, the L key in RA2. It is worth mentioning that the money received here is calculated according to the amount of blood in the building. The less blood the less money you get. Full blood is still 1/2 of the purchase price.
Q: Select combat units on the map. It’s equivalent to P in RA2.
W: Choose the same unit, equivalent to T in RA2.
CTRL + R: This is a very useful shortcut. Remember when RA2 started numbering barracks? This combination of keys completely replaces its function – they can be used to set the building assembly point.
Label:
~ Secret Agreement Column
E: Buildings (if there are multiple construction hurdles, such as cranes in the Soviet Union, the construction hurdles can be switched between bases and cranes by pressing the E key continuously)
R: Defense
T: Infantry
Y: Vehicle
U: aircraft
I: Navy
F1~F9: Shortcut keys for building or unit use must be labeled or selected for use.
Battle:
F1~F12: Selection key. For example, if you currently choose two Apocalypses (assuming F1, not necessarily in the game) and one Hammer (assuming F2), double-click F1 can only choose Apocalypse, the same is true of double F2 only choose Hammer.
F: Function keys, needless to say, all units’skill hotkeys.
TAB and SHIFT + TAB: This Warcraft fighter should be very fond of using it, and it’s really useful in RA3. TAB is the next subgroup, SHIFT + TAB is the last subgroup.
For example, you chose three Apocalypses, one hammer and one sickle. At this time, you want to let the sickle jump to the cliff, without choosing the sickle alone, you can choose its label page with TAB or SHIFT + TAB, and then you can jump with F. Unlike F1 ~ F2, the four units are still in the state of choice, not just the sickle.
