Are unit sprites in the game itself still counted as sprites?
In SCMDraft, yes. In starcraft, no. They are units.
okay so in SCMDraft, there are sprites. it has doodad, special, units, then it has "unit sprites"
what is the difference between sprite units, and these unit sprites? or is there one?
Use the commutative property of addition. (so no there is none)

not quite...
the "units" under sprites are pure sprites, just pictures of the units. They can't be selected or anything.

so will they crash starcraft like some normal units would? or can u place all of them?
None.

You guys are giving me a headache. Please try to clearly differentiate of what you're talking about.
There are "unit sprites", "pure sprites" and "units".
The "pure sprites" section has sprites of units (and more) - but to avoid confusion don't call them unit sprites. Those are just images and can't be affected by anything.
The "unit sprites" will act like "units" in game. But they can be disabled in the editor which causes all sorts of weird effects.
okay, is there such a list for
pure sprites that crash starcraft?
the only ones i can find are for unit sprites
None.

well im using unit sprites on a map to not only save room, but also add a level of wtf to the map, and also so they cant lift off the building so i dont have to make trigs and locations for it
and for some special things i wanna include, i need to know exactly what resources i have to my disposal
i know i ask a lot of questions lol, thats who i am
None.
While asking questions is smart, asking simple questions can just be a waste of time, especially when it comes to Starcraft. Please, try to test out stuff first. You can easily create a blank map, and place a unit sprite an the "sprite unit" aka "pure sprite". That will not only tell you the difference, but SHOW you the difference.

None.
