Hotkeys allow you to order your Bricktrons with a quick key press.


Pause Game ( P )

Pressing P will Pause the game in any Singleplayer game mode. This button has no use in Multiplayer. No commands can be issued when the game is paused. This is intentional as it forces the Player to have to adjust to changes in real-time.


Toggle Autoground ( V )

Pressing V will cause the Camera to automatically lower itself to the ground level below the Cursor. This works in both the Default Camera and the Editor Camera.


Display Overheads ( Left Alt )

Pressing and holding Left Alt will cause all nameplates and other Overhead UI (Messages above Bricktrons heads) to appear. This only makes Overheads that are currently not displaying appear.


Hold Position / Hold Fire ( H )

Pressing H with Workers or Knights selected will cause them to hold their position and stop moving. They will attack units that come within range of their weapons, but they won't chase or retreat.


Pressing H with an Archer selected will instruct it to hold fire. They will stand in their current position and will not fire at enemies or move.


Stop Movement ( T )

Pressing T while any Bricktron is selected will cause them to stop what they are doing. This does not tell them to hold position.


Move Attack ( Shift + Right-Click )

Holding SHIFT and right-clicking with a Knight or Archer selected will instruct the units to move to that position while attacking any enemies they meet in their path. Once the enemies are dispatched, they will resume moving to the intended destination.


Dig Voxels / Drop Resources ( Ctrl + Right-Click )

Selecting a Worker or Knight and right-clicking while holding Ctrl will cause it to dig a voxel or destroy a brick/structure.

If the worker is holding a brick or a full bag of resources, they will drop them.


Select Active Projects ( 1 - 0 )

Selects the Project (Task) found at the bottom of the screen, corresponding to its number.

Quick Task Creation

Each of these shortcuts is the same as accessing them through their alternative methods.


Open Project Menu ( Back Quote )

This opens up the Project Menu, which allows you to select from any of the available Tasks to create.


Create Construction Task ( F1 )

Create Harvest Task ( F2 )
