Simultaneous Attack hotkey?

[AegonTheUnready]

In HOI3 I remember there was a way to tell units to all attack at the exact same time. I cannot seem to find the hotkey to do that in HOI4. Sorry for being dense, but where is that?

For example, I order units from 3 different provinces to attack one province. Some arrive in 5 hours, some in 1 day and others in 2 days 12 hours.

I want them ALL to arrive 2 days 12 hours. How?

I don't believe so, or at least none that I've seen. It is of less consequence in HOI4 however, since there is no attack delay (and units seem to move really fast).

You can launch a supporting attached with alt + right click, but it's not the same as setting an exact time for attacks launch.

You must become one with the battle planner. The battle planner is mother, the battle planner is father. Trust the battle planner, it is your best friend, the battle planner is here to help you. It knows all, it sees all, it will decide when and where to use your troops.

That hot key is unnecessary in HOI4 because the battle planner solves all of our needs, wants, and desires.

That's right, Luke.

All attacks in HOI4 always launch at exactly the same time, so what is being asked for is literally unnecessary (this has nothing to do with battle planner). However, what I think the OP really wants is a way so that victorious attacking units all arrive at the objective at the same time. There is currently no way to do this. Your units will arrive piecemeal hence counterattacks remaining a significant threat.

Also, most tile-to-tile time is different. The only way to get your troops to arrive at the same time is if they all attack from the same tile, which is a horrible tactic that i dont recommend ever.

Previous versions had an option box to check such that the faster or closer units held back waiting for the slower ones so that all arrived simultaneously. That feature was not included in HOI4. I am fairly certain that is what triggered the OP's question.
