The Shortcut Bar is a group of icons for accessing regularly used features with a simple mouse click. It is always visible at the bottom of the screen, appearing to the right of the Quickbar. Icons can be hidden and their order can be changed. A maximum of 12 icons can be visible at one time.

The Shortcut Bar provides icons for:

Extra icons can be added to the Shortcut Bar by mods. No more than 12 icons can be visible on the bar at any one time, so existing icons might need to be hidden in order to make new ones visible.

Configuring the icons

Click the button in the top right of the Shortcut Bar to pop out the configuration pane. Here you can choose which icons appear and in which order:

Individual icons can be turned on or off by clicking their tick-box. The order of the icons can be changed by dragging the ridged area on the right-hand side of the bar for that icon.

Initial availability of icons

The 'ALT mode' icon is always available. The other icons are unavailable until the player has researched Construction robotics in any game. When this research has been completed the other icons will appear in that and all future games.

Alternatively the player can enable the additional icons at any time using the following Console command:

/unlock-shortcut-bar

Using this command will not disable achievements.
