I need to make some units unselectable
i dont want to make them sprites because sprites disapear in the fog of war

i'm not for sure about exactly unselectable but i can tell that could be similar

i was modding dark arcon to chinese Knight and i had use images to just overlay
archon being grp was edited to blank
and outcome is i can not select that

So i think there is way to editing unselectable
or maybe the way is just edit unit's propertiese to like unselectable units

Anyway i was edit be similar

yes when the unit sprite is very small you can't click it but you can select it with the Drag-box

hm.. i just find interested propertiese

i thought about Nuke missile that's why is that is unselectable as u know
and i was look that unit size item that was Independent

and i was searching other unselectable units like doors darkswarm etc
That's everyone of unit size item is Independent

check that item and try modding to like that

Yes, I do believe that DatEdit says that Independant units are unselectable. That should work.

ADDITION:
actually, i was just exploring datedit today, and i found something: khaydarin crystals, datadiscs, young chrysalises, etc. are all independant, yet you can select them. however, i also found something out. I think if you set the level of animation under 'graphics/animation' to 0 (below ground level) it might be unselectable, MAYBE. try that.

Nooo..... I made an underground bunker, and it blended with creep. Still selectable.

Unselectable units don't have an animation level (They are blank/stay the same as the previous unit selected)

Oh, that's interesting...I'll into this, because it means that the value is above the allowed range...
