I was able to create a map .ld file with neutral unit groups. I accomplished it by making a map with 20 unit groups for side 2, exporting it to a .pdb file, and then unpacking the .pdb file. After that I was able to open one of the files in a hex editor, and modify the values that control what color a unit group is. Next I packed up all the files into a .pdb file, and converted it to a .ld file using M.exe.

The attachment below is a .ld map with 20 unit groups that are set to neutral. You can load this map into M.exe, and edit it how you please. The purpose of the attachment is so that map makers can download it, and edit it to make map(s) with neutral unit groups. I had 4 player co-op maps in mind.

If anyone needs a map with more than 20 neutral unit groups, reply here and I'll update the .ld file to have more. Feel free to post a reply with any questions you may have.
