Just here for the pie

Move the unit to a location that's not on the map. You can set a location off of the map by editing the coordinates in SCMDraft to those that are not within the map's boundaries.

lil's clearly quite drunk cause SCMDraft wouldn't let you make a location like that without a fight and starcraft would correct it so...

If you wanted to make a location in SCMDraft partially outside the map (to the right or down) you'll have to change the map size to something larger, then adjust the coordinates, then size the map back. CHKDraft will simply let you change the coordinates however you wish.

StarCraft will try to correct the location but if you make its width and/or height more than double the maps' dimension, it's center will stay off the map.

I don't know if this method even works for immobilizing a unit, though give it a shot.

Actually older versions of SCMDraft have no problem with this. In fact I have 3 different versions of SCMDraft that do things slightly differently, but are all called 0.0.8.0. One of them freely lets you move locations off the map and doesn't do anything to re-locate them. Also Starcraft allows those locations to remain off the map - it's only if a location is Moved to somewhere that would make it out-of-bounds that SC will force it inside the map.
