It looks to me like the truck issues are path related. Remember that there is only one use for a one way path; and that is if the bot cannot by any means go in a certain direction between the two nodes (like a jump down). Any other time can result in problems. Radius' seem a bit small too. For some reason it looks like the default radius when adding the nodes was 40?
The trigger for the truck may be a bit small too I guess. If the truck has a scriptname associated with it, I'll be able to fix that.
Aside from pathing issues, the real major problem I saw was that half the Axis team is spawning back at the depot on the map start. I'll see about fixing that as well.
I'll work on the pathing for the first phase this weekend and see if the truck issues can be resolved.
EDIT: Well, it seems that the "fake" steal action is actually a real one. If you destroy the main gate to the depot, watch the bots go up and take the "objective". They even have the green objective Icon above their head...I'll see about fixing that too...
The pathing problem was mainly related to the fake steal action. It's in group 0, and because you activate group 0 in the default action test, the bots considered it active with no way of getting to it. Changing the group of action 14 will solve that, but we typically reserve group 0 for actions we turn off / on in script. So in a collaboration it would be best to not activate group 0 in the default action test (or ever).
EDIT (again):
After updating some of the pathing, I came to the conclusion that Fritz wants the mover to be a constructible (otherwise it assumes the mover to be damaged). I edited the map script and made the truck a constructible and there are no more "repair the vehicle" requests and escorting doesn't seem to be a problem any more.
I put actions 14 and 15 into group 9 to solve the problem mentioned above. There are still alot of tweaks / bugs, but this version (attached) should be much easier to troubleshoot the standard issues.
