Maker Production Multiplier keyboard shortcut

that could be helpful, but it could also suck if yours mouse freezes up and you point it in the exact wrong direction.

Why would your mouse freeze? Anyway, it's a good habit to pause while adding, moving or adjusting units and it will solve any potential problem. :)

I know of quite a few places where the mouses' trackballs get stuck (halfway across the screen)

So here's something that might be really simple:
How about I just default the Maker to 4x production?

[Grauniad]

Nooooo.... We'd run out of ore that much faster.

when we're in the maker menu, can't you simply use keys 1, 2 and 4?  Or S(mall)/L(ow), M(edium) and H(igh)?

[MadMag]

I always use 4x

[UpperKEES]

I use the maximum I can, which differs per map.

How about using '+' and '-' to increase/decrease the production?

good idea

and how about you start them active too, (it is annoying to have to set a lot of makers to 4x and arm them)

I like it this way (disarmed), as I like to keep my ore in store until I really need it.

The 'show FPS'-key would have to be reallocated, but that probably isn't a major issue (and not documented anyway).

U=1x
I=2x
O=4x
(These three are near the Pause button)

My suggestion would be one key to scroll through the intensities. This would keep other keys free for other shortcuts in the future.
