How do you make something like a cloaked unit that can be attacked that is detected but is not clickable?

Depends on a lot.

Questions:
Who owns this unit?
Who is attacking it?
Who is trying to click it?

If the answers are:
Enemy of yours owns this unit.
You are attacking it.
You are trying to click it.

Then I'm pretty sure it's impossible.

The enemy owns it, you're attacking it and selecting the enemy unit looking at the HP smile.gif

ADDITION:
Does it crash if you attack a crash unit or dies like a normal unit

"Crash Units" crash the game by being placed. Impossible to find out.

In order to attack something you have to be able to click it. But, if you just dont want to see the HP, you can set the HP to a low value and use a trigger to set it up to 255 percent or preplace the unit and change the percent in the properties box. And the start location thing is because they obviously did not program for a start location's death, so when it does die it tries to make a death animation that doesnt exist and so your SC crashes.

On warcraft 3, you can make a "NEW" model (Model as in Unit or Doodad) and the model can be shown in the portait in the bottom also it shows death, doesn't crash smile.gif but sc does sad.gif

Wrong. you can just click attack and then click on valid terrain and the units you ordered to attack will attack all units encountered on its "trip"

This isn't WarCraft 3. And considering World Edit is brand new compared to StarEdit, Blizzard obviously changed a lot to fix certain issues it had with StarEdit and make new features. WarCraft 3's editor is so much better than StarEdit, but this site is for StarEdit so no one cares about WarCraft 3.

But if its cloaked and you can't click on it then that means you can't see it withouut a detector. Thus, you can't attack it.

Yes I know it's NOT warcraft 3 but I wish blizzard made the model editor for SC
