If you add a waypoint to your group and then want them to start moving to that waypoint, make sure to call setWaypointType "MOVE" on your waypoint.

In VBS2 1.30, the randomization of addWaypoint doesn't seem to work correctly all of the time.
The alternative syntax of addWaypoint with a specified index doesn't seem to work correctly.
