Simple question I hope. I am trying to place a gate(Unit) in a specific location but it "snaps" to a grid location to the left or right of the place I need it to be in. Is there a way for me to move the gate unit to a specific pixel by pixel location as needed like a Doodad if you hold Shift? Thanks

Not if it is a building I dont think. You have to remove it's pathing map otherwise, that would allow it to be placed just like a unit.

I placed the gate unit, went into its Unit in the Data editor (Yes i made sure I had the right one) and removed the Pathing, Placement Apply and Placement Check. All 3 are just blank now. Everytime I try moving the unit however it does the same thing. It moves about an inch in either direction and cannot be moved any less than a full "Grid" distance. All i want is to match up the unit with walls that do not match up with the grid lay out. I need to be able to move the unit more precisely than the auto placement allows

Solved (Kinda) The problem was that the size of the Gate is 4x2. Whenever I tried to move the gate it would only move into locations to hold this object. I changed the shape size to 1x1 in the data editor and that allowed me to place it on a more precise location. Now if only I can figure out how to make it fit vertically (it is still poking to far out on 1 side than the other)

Anyone else have an idea to where I can move a Gate around in very very SMALL increments to allow for me to place it exactly where I need it?

I did and it still "snaps" the unit to the grid. Think of it like a checker board. You can only place the piece squarely on the boards tiles. A Doodad you can place anywhere on the board. Inbetween the lines, up and down the x and y axis in any location as long as you press and hold Shift. The gate unit, even after I remove the footprints, still won't let me do that

yes
