Unknown: To create a marker which is visible on the map you need to define at least the following three settings: _markerstr = createMarkerLocal ["markername",[_Xpos,_Ypos]]; _markerstr setMarkerShapeLocal "ICON"; _markerstr setMarkerTypeLocal "DOT";

 If position is given in 3D format, <tt>z</tt> coordinate is stored with the marker and will be used when marker is passed to commands like [[createVehicle]], [[createUnit]], [[createAgent]], [[createMine]], [[setVehiclePosition]] for example. However [[getMarkerPos]] and [[markerPos]] will always return 0 for <tt>z</tt>.
