I wonder if there is any way we can buy many different buildings without having to wait for the previous building to be completed. Like the way we buy different types of units at the same time Question  Question  Question

You asked once, the answer was no.
You ask twice, the answer is still no.

That said, you can "hack" it like MO does, but then you'll be forced to get 2, 3 etc. BuildingTypes at the same time; you can't one time just want 2 and the next time want 4 of the same BuildingType; not unless you don't mind cluttering your Armory tab with useless stuff.

LIke he said, not possible. You have to make copy of building and add it in defenses. So, you can build two buildings at same time. I never tested it, but should work.
Yuri has Slave Miner which is vehicle which converts to building, so it is buildable both from buildings and war factory, two in the same time.
But, as said, the game engine is not allowing anything you asked, either making multiple stuff at the same time, or queeing buildings like you do this with infantry or units. Have in mind that units go outside of factory type, while building must be manually constructed. Quee is useless even if possible.
In generals and later you could build multiple structures with multiple dozers/workers. In War Craft III, you could even quee multiple buildings to be build, when order worker to build building and press SHIFT 5 times for example, it leaves 5 shadows on the ground, of said buildings. Once finished with one building, the worker continues to next shadow and next until finished all. I have seen this, but, unfortunately, impossible in our engine.

Because you need place the first one before the second one can be built?

We can do this trick with Generals game. When put in the WALL tag the building can be built like a wall with a drag, you can have multiple building ready to build at once. Only if we know how to do it.

Phobos has this option to remember previous building built and link it to a hotkey, though I don't think they ever finished the feature

This is possible with Kratos but maybe Phobos too, I have to try. I have an idea.
