I've made some units into destructibles so i can place them on a map as a doodad/decoration (usually dead). Whenever I place one in the WE it shows the unit's team color as black, but in game it always shows up as red. I was wondering if there was a way to make them black in game. If it's just one of those hard coded things then I can live with it, just wondering.

I think you'll have to live with it unless you want to edit the model. The team coloured parts default to 0 (which is Player1, red) as the owner is no player.

I figured as much, no worries, it isn't that bad.

@ En Tropy I thought of that too, but is there a way to show a dead unit in the editor?

Set its death time to a very high value, it's actually that field which matters.

That works for ingame, but in the editor I want to add doodads and things to the dead units to spice them up a bit, but I can't if they are alive in the editor and dead ingame. For instance, all the spears sticking out of the lightning lizard in my screenshot.
