Im curious how did you open Vermeer?

I would guess these locations require pinhead precision when dropping.

I downloaded it and opened it up, it wasn't locked or anything. Most maps these days aren't locked as far as I've seen.

Some locations shouldn't be to hard if you know where to drop. Some might be pixel perfect, some might not be possible. According to the editor, units of this size can fit in these locations.

SCMdraft shows obstructive parts of the map (the shadowed part) where units cant walk nor be dropped. What hes showing are small holes where some units (all units are not equally sized) can be dropped.

Most pro maps are made that you need to drop at a visible enemy location (like beside minerals) to make your harass (like storming). In these non-visible spots behind the wall you could storm without being in danger of the HT/Shuttle for example.

It seems most of these locations seem impossible to drop in, I think because it may require a pixel perfect drop command because the walkable area is the same size as the unit's collision box on either side.
