Detailed Description

This script should be attached to any object which offensive AI scripts should treat as a mission objective, for example a building. Compatible scripts include dp88_AI_Tank_Offensive. Note that the objective is used as a go-to location rather than a target to shoot at, so the behaviour of the unit when it arrives at an objective depends upon the script being used and its configuration.

Parameters

Team	Which team this objective applies to. 0 for Nod/Soviets, 1 for GDI/Allies and 2 for both
Type	What type of objective this is, valid values are 1 (Offensive), 2 (Defensive) or 3 (Engineering)
Range	The target distance from this objective the unit will try to achieve. Be careful not to set this too low or the AI might be unable to calculate a successful route. Upon arrival units will roam within this area until the objective is accomplished or a new objective takes priority
Priority_Soldier	Objective priority for soldiers, or 0 is this objective is not suitable for soldiers
Priority_Light_Vehicle	Objective priority for light vehicles, or 0 is this objective is not suitable for light vehicles
Priority_Heavy_Vehicle	Objective priority for heavy vehicles, or 0 is this objective is not suitable for heavy vehicles
Priority_Aircraft	Objective priority for aircraft, or 0 is this objective is not suitable for aircraft
