@pill0ws Yes, it would require a mouse click after pressing a hotkey but is that really such an imposition? We aren't talking about a game where input speed is of the essence. It's a turn based RPG. You have all the time you need to input your commands. I realize some people may want to minimize inputs but I don't think pressing hotkey + a single mouse click is asking too much of them. It beats the alternative of when you're able to cast up to level 6 spells and almost every 1st level spell has 6 hotbar icons tied to it. I suppose a compromise would be to have the dropdown box come up and you can right click a given spell level above level 1 and select 'add to hotbar'. I wouldn't use it because I have no issue whatsoever with spellcasting requiring 2 to 3 inputs but those that would, more power to them.
why not just leave hotkeys alone and then add a popup menu when clicking on the "remaining spell slots" section located immediately above the bar and adjacent to the clock?
