Just noticed this weird bug...I opened a custom map (Midnight action, it's in the maps section here), and selected the armory building. I put my cursor over a geyser, with the armory appearing in red because I can't place it. Then I went and selected the assimilator and placed my cursor on top of the same geyser...It disappeared, though the editor still reads the geyser as being there.
Just tried it out in the editor for myself and its really odd how unreliable it is. The first time I placed the geyser and put the assimilator over it, the geyser disappeared. But then when I undid the changes and replaced the geyser and tried it a second time, the geyser didn't disappear... Somewhat odd bug, but it is possible to work around it.

I guess this "bug" is due to the editor making the geyser invisible when you want to place a refinery over it so that it doesn't look odd, just like how the geyser is removed in-game (though it has an animation in-game) when you build a refinery on top of it. What's really strange is it happened when I wasn't placing the refinery on top, just put the cursor over the geyser.

Strange bug...Has anyone else had this happen?

@AlexO6: Go
That would make sense, but you can't actually place a refinery over a vespane in the editor, it won't let you.
You can if you hold shift.
