When on favorites you can push a number on your number pad and it will bind that favorite to the number on the pad. How cool is that?
Not a perfect solution but 10x better then what I've been dealing with.

Perfect world a PC game is built for PC, but alas, I'm having too much fun to complain too hard.

Or you can use your other numbers going across. Those work just as well too.

Oh, so THAT'S how you use hotkeys. I've been trying to figure it out. It's not really hidden, it's just poorly implemented. They talk about hotkeys in the manual.

Yeah.. I don't read no stinking manuals.
