AI questions

Post by jimmyg22 »

well ive been messing around with AI for a while now and have made a few maps for fun, i just have a few questions about AI.

1. what are "Fake start positions"
2. what is the purpose of "platoons" and how do you use them
3. when using move positions how do you get the ai to run?
4. how do you use "firing positions"

thats all i can think of at the moment, could you point me to a tutorial that has this information or anything that could help, i have been googleing these questions for a while now and i cant seem to find anything useful.
