Two questions. Does this new version allow for more 'locations' than previous one's? Also, while we are talking about creep is there a way to disable it for a specific building without having to build it on a specific terrain (like rocky or ruins)?

You're gonna have to be more specific, what do you even want him to implement? SCMDraft is already the most powerful editor out there.

I'm limited by what the engine supports, in terms of locations. I also don't know of a way of doing the creep, short of possibly (I am just making things up as I go) 1: disabling creep generation va EUD trigger, 2: creating the building; 3: reenabling creep generation

The alpha linked in this thread has numerous new, small features, and as I come up with ideas / have time to work on my idea list more will be added.

Hmm I'm getting some kind of error when I open latest scmdraft 2. "The procedure entry point richmond could not be located in the dynamic links library etc etc."

You can try ignoring it and seeing if everything works, it should at most effect the trigger editor.

If I can't reproduce it can I send you a version with some test code?

Isometrical terrain lends to interesting illusion:

Something requested by a few melee map makers: Unit range display

Something I just found. I was making a fastest map and upon nearly completing it and testing it, the Terran and Protoss workers mine the stack of minerals no problem, but Zerg Drones don't want to mine more than one or two at a time. Any suggestions?

Are you sure it was SCMDraft that caused this? It could be something else. Also, make sure that the minerals are not on unwalkable (impassable) tiles, as these can stop workers from mining certain patches.

So I found the problem. I was using a tile that was highground for the area of the main building and lowground area for the minerals. For whatever reason the other races acted like it was no different but drones would not continue mining for whatever reason.
