How to make special units buildable in custom maps and also make that map be selected in ultimate alliances.

Quick response and helpful comments is appreciated.

By special units do you mean some campaign exclusive ones or what?

Add GameMode=Ultimate Alliance under [Basic] section inside your map,

Taking a Psychic Beacon as an example:

[NAPSYB]

Prerequisite= ;; List of buildings required to built it, separated by commas

TechLevel=  ;; from 1 to 10

Owner=USSR,Latin,Chinese,PsiCorps,Headquaters,ScorpionCell,Europeans,UnitedStates,Pacific,Guild1,Guild2,Guild3

For units it's similar, usually changing those three flags is enough.

BuildLimit=   flag is what you need

EDIT: yeah, in case you don't know the unit's ID, open the map editor, place that unit/building anywhere on a map an hover your cursor over it. At the bottom of a screen on the status bar you'll see something like: Structure: ID 0, Psychic Beacon (PsiCorps, NAPSYB) NAPSYB would be building's ID.

It's just a building with no special attribute. The feature is all map triggers

Thanks Handepsilon.... Now just the build limit.  

That article cleared my doubt... Thanks a lot...

It's just a building with no special attribute. The feature is all map triggers

Would it be too hard to make a proper psychic beacon without map triggers, though?

Well, the KOTH gamemode has one, it's pretty much a Psychic Dominator with full map AOE and no damage.
