Preset Workshop & Profile Sharing
How to browse community configuration profiles in the Workshop (/resources/), activate them in the menu, and publish your own presets.
1. Finding Community Presets in the Workshop (/resources/)
What it does: Gives you access to ready-to-use configuration profiles created by experienced players: 1v1 and team ranked HUD layouts, color themes, hotkey setups, and civilization-specific build order plans.
2. Activating a Profile in the Menu
What it does: Applies all visual markers, HUD panel positions, gatherer split ratios, and custom hotkeys from the selected profile at once without configuring each toggle manually.
3. Saving & Publishing Your Own Preset
What it does: Lets you save your personal HUD layout, color palette, monitor scaling (1080p / 1440p / 4K), and assistant settings into a named slot and share it with the community.
4. Switching Between Ranked & Practice Profiles
What it does: Allows one-click switching between a clean, balanced HUD profile for online ranked play and a full-featured practice profile for single-player skirmishes.
Profile Setup & Sharing Best Practices
| Menu Tab | What the Feature Does | How to Use |
|---|---|---|
| Preset: Ranked 1v1 | Keeps only essential indicators on screen (sheep, relics, threat range rings, and a compact opponent panel) for an uncluttered view. | Select the "Ranked" slot in the "Profiles" tab (F5) and bind secondary lines to a Hold key. |
| Preset: Team Games (2v2–4v4) | Colors unit outlines and movement lines by player team color so you can coordinate quickly with allies. | Enable "Player Team Colors" in the "Radar & View" tab and save your profile. |
| 1080p / 1440p / 4K Scaling | Keeps text legibility and widget margins comfortable across different monitor resolutions. | When publishing a preset in the "Workshop" (/resources/), mention your recommended "HUD Scale" slider value (e.g., 100% for 1080p, 125% for 1440p/4K). |
| Manual Input Priority | Ensures economy and combat helpers run smoothly with balanced intervals without overriding your mouse clicks. | Keep "Respect Manually Selected Squads" enabled in the "AI Assistant" tab before saving your preset. |
