Is there any way I can place an area somewhere, and make it so no buildings can be placed there?
I'm going to have a rescue squad come in, and I'm not sure if the player will have any buildings where I want to create...

Unreachable buildings or units are death in our game. If you ever noticed how great the pathfinding was, this is a side effect of that. It's too complicated to explain the details. Suffice to say, don't put any buildings in an unreachable area. This includes placing buildings that block other buildings.

Yea I noticed that. I had an entrance to a enemy base blocked by four guard towers, and the number of errors it produced - well.!
