Neutral Creeps suddenly stopped showing on minimap

While working on my map, I noticed in one of the test runs that the neutral camps, which I'd had working for a while now, stopped showing up. The creeps still spawned, but they appeared to no longer belong to Neutral Hostile, as their names were no longer in red, and they didn't show up on the minimap.

I can't figure this out because I made no changes to anything relevant to them. I double checked everything I could think of, nothing. The functions to spawn the units still specify Neutral Hostile as the owner, all the options for showing creeps on the minimap are still on. It seems like it just doesn't want to spawn them for Neutral Hostile anymore.

EDIT: It fixed itself... But I would appreciate it if someone could shed some light on this for me. The only thing I did was place a neutral hostile unit in the editor, which showed on the minimap in the editor, thinking maybe I should check in game, but I changed my mind, deleted the unit and saved the map. Then it just started working again.
