Description:: Attaches a script to a scripted waypoint. In early versions of Arma, command consisted of a script name and additional script arguments and the script had to use SQS-Syntax. The script receives the following arguments in _this variable: [group, position, target] + [the optional passed arguments]. The optional arguments are appended to the end of the arguments array.
In Arma 3, command argument can be a reference to .sqf script (it will have to explicitly end with .sqf) or a reference to .sqs script.
Groups:: Waypoints

Example 1:: [_grp, 2] setWaypointScript "find.sqs player";
Example 2:: [_grp, 2] setWaypointScript "somescript.sqf [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8]";
