Been a while since I played, decided to give Zeus a try.

Not sure if this is a common issue, but I'm unable to hotkey myrmidon from my rax. I've tried reseting the hotkeys of both the fortress and rax to default ("u" is the greek unique unit) but my "u" button does nothing when I open up my rax. Also tried making a new profile and new hotkey for the greek unique unit to no success.

Anyone else had this issue and know how to resolve?

you might have another hotkey already used by "u" maybe to build a monument or find one, try changing the original hotkey then you can use "u" for myrmidons :flowers:

so you can use "u" in fortress but not in barracks, am i correct?

open aom folder/startup/user.con

add these

map ("u", "GreekAcademyAccel", "tis(\"Myrmidon\")")
map ("shift-u", "GreekAcademyAccel", "tis(\"Myrmidon\") uiToggleBuildingQueue")

for me the file path is

C:\Games\Age of Mythology Series\AOM\startup
File name: game.con

I edited this section with your suggestion:

////////////////////////////////////
// Greek Academy Accelerators
////////////////////////////////////
map ("p", "GreekAcademyAccel", "tis(\"Hoplite\")")
map ("y", "GreekAcademyAccel", "tis(\"Hypaspist\")")
map ("u", "GreekAcademyAccel", "tis(\"Myrmidon\")")

map ("shift-p", "GreekAcademyAccel", "tis(\"Hoplite\",5)")
map ("shift-y", "GreekAcademyAccel", "tis(\"Hypaspist\",5)")
map ("shift-u", "GreekAcademyAccel", "tis(\"Myrmidon\",5,)")

This had no effect, although the Myrmidon line was missing entirely from the Greek Academy Accelerators- adding it in didn't seem to fix it.

I may just have to reinstall the game and see if that fixes it.

Yeah OP should try another button instead of "u" for myrms so we can see if that is the problem

map ("d", "GreekAcademyAccel", "tis(\"Myrmidon\")")

I tried changing the keybind to something other than "u" (ex: Shift + q or w) multiple times that was part of the low hanging fruit when I was first trying to solve the issue.

I ended up deleting my profiles and building a new one, and it seems to work now with the "u" queing a myrmidon from my rax. (Making a new profile before didn't help, kind of weird). Seems really finnicky but looks like it's working for now. Whenever I try to change the keybind from "u" (which is a bad keybind) to something closer to wasd the problem seems to come up so I'll just leave it there before I break something again.
