Is it possible to make a non-hero unit not display on minimap?

Hello,

I want to hide a non-hero unit (it's a structure) on the minimap. The unit has to be selectable though, and I cannot change the owner from the current one (to neutral for example) since I need the unit to be team-specific. I was thinking that maybe the same option that hides Heroes from the minimap could be used, however there is no option in the editor to enable it. Is there a workaround for this? I remember there was a way to enable certain data fields for certain units using a modifiey unitabilitydata.slk this way I got a hero to build structures.

Could this be solved with a similar modifictaion? Or does anyone else know of another possible way to hide such a unit from the mini-map?

Change the 'Stats - Hide Minimap Display' value to True in the Unit Editor.

Ouch... this was really trivial. I guess my modified unitmetadata.slk kept this from showing up, but now that I deleted it I found it. Thanks a lot :)
