Unfortunately I wasn't around to see the responses to this before Nude deleted them from the suggestions thread, so I'll go ahead and ask here.
So the questions are:
1) How do you make black a faction color? (solved)
2) How do you select only one unit from a group of stacked units? (solved)
3) What feature do you use to find locations (other than just looking for them everywhere)? (solved)
4) How do you export and import triggers from other maps? (solved)
5) Where can I go to learn more about extending doodads or making reverse ramps (or just explain how you do this)? (mostly solved)
Sorry to those who already answered once.

None.
136
select them, then press enter, and deselect the rest of them
locations in the sidebar
use text trig edit, copypasta
go to the terrain section of SEN, use the tileset index view of terrain, download falkoner's map collection. Blending is an acquired thing.
I despise big threads, so if anyone has any questions it's better for them to make their own topic.

Thanks a ton, I'll have to get falkoner's stuff and start playing. I just tested 2-4 and I can't believe I haven't been using those before. The only one I still don't get, and maybe because I wasn't specific enough, was black as a color. I've been making player colors black (what you see in the game on the units) through the drop-down menu under map settings and map properties. How do I access the player color in text to add the 136?
None.

Instead of selecting from the drop-down menu (red, green, cyan, etc.) just type 136 in the field.
Btw. all blacks have one problem: Their leaderboard color is transparent.
64 is an almost black (you won't notice the difference) which also looks black on the leaderboard.

Thanks a ton you guys! You made my life easier. If I need more help with reverse'd doodads I'll just make a different topic somewhere down the line.
None.
64 is an almost black (you won't notice the difference) which also looks black on the minimap.
Is it black on the leaderboard too?
136 is on the left, perfectly black, with black on minimap. 133 is on the right, perfectly black, with olive on minimap. 132 is also there, but in the top right, with a sort of light brown on minimap, but entirely black. 64 has a purpleish color on minimap. 56 is entirely black, I believe.

More like very very dark purple. You really won't notice unless you know it and compare it with perfect black.
But as I said, only recommended for the leaderboard display, which is black instead of transparent.
