About Unit/Location Hotkeys
From Factorio Mod PortalAdds configurable shortcuts and hotkeys to center your view on a specific entity or location (and select a remote when it's a spidertron), similar to control groups in an RTS
Adds a panel for creating shortcuts to allow quickly centering your map on a specific entity or location. Useful for large factories where it takes a while to move between points of interest, keeping track of the location of something, or managing multiple spidertrons.
Click the button or use the associated hotkey to jump to a location. Can also start remote driving or select a connected spidertron controller when the target entity is a vehicle. Also allows for following an entity, similar to map pins.
