For waypoint types description look at

• ArmA: Mission_Editor
• OFP: Mission_Editor

Using Move With a game logic group will move the logic to the set location just like setpos _wp = group logic1 addWaypoint [ getpos player, 1]; [group logic1, 1] setWPPos getpos player; [group logic1, 1] setWaypointType "move";

To clear up any confusion regarding the syntax, follow this example where grp01 is the name of a group of AI units: _wp = grp01 addWaypoint [[25295,21919,85], 0]; _wp setWaypointType "MOVE"; _wp1 = grp01 addWaypoint [[25381,21882,70], 0]; _wp1 setWaypointType "MOVE"; _wp2 = grp01 addWaypoint [[ 25332,21782,78], 0]; _wp2 setWaypointType "CYCLE"; //Use the variable (_wp2), not [grp01, 0]

In the editor only AND and OR type of waypoints are available for GAME LOGICS but you can use CYCLE type as well in setWaypointType
