I am working on a RTS game and I have created some RTS units & buildings. I want to create my first map. My questions i this.

Is there a way to place RTS Units and Buildings using the editor tool?

There is a more detailed explanation of this in a thread that was active several months ago, but the short answer is no. World placement, team assignment, scoping, and a variety of other requirements for units and buildings preclude using the editor for placing "static" units.

You can of course re-write the mission file loading to handle the specifics required for properly adding RTSUnits to the game environment, but it will take some work.
