For waypoint types description look at

• ArmA: Mission_Editor
• OFP: Mission_Editor

Using Move With a game logic group will move the logic to the set location just like setpos. In the editor only AND and OR type of waypoints are available for GAME LOGICS but you can use CYCLE type as well in setWaypointType. _wp = group logic1 addWaypoint [ getPos player, 1]; [ group logic1, 1] setWPPos getPos player; [ group logic1, 1] setWaypointType "move";

To clear up any confusion regarding the syntax, follow this example where grp01 is the name of a group of AI units: _wp = grp01 addWaypoint [[25295,21919,85], 0]; _wp setWaypointType "MOVE"; _wp1 = grp01 addWaypoint [[25381,21882,70], 0]; _wp1 setWaypointType "MOVE"; _wp2 = grp01 addWaypoint [[ 25332,21782,78], 0]; _wp2 setWaypointType "CYCLE"; //Use the variable (_wp2), not [grp01, 0]
