Firstly I'd like to say that most of these functions are not new, so credit goes to the original founders.
The first method is using node origins (script_model) which are spread out, here's an example of what it'll look like. This method isnt fully working and will need more functions added too it, I'll leave you to add the rest.
modela = spawn("script_model",(697, 1057, 185)); //change the co-ords, modela,b,c can be anything.
if((self.name == "bot1")) self linkto( modela); //the bot you will be using
wait 0.5;
modela MoveTo( modelb, 20, .05, .05 );
waittill ("movedone");
modelb = spawn("script_model",(697, 1057, 185)); //change the co-ords
modelb MoveTo( modelc, 20, .05, .05 );
waittill ("movedone");
modelc = spawn("script_model",(697, 1057, 185)); //change the co-ords
self waittill ("death");
self unlink();
modela delete();
The second method is to spawn a script origin and using a movex,y or z function, for example.
self endon("death");
self freezecontrols(true);
modela = spawn("script_model",(697, 1057, 185)); //base origin
modela RotateYaw( 90, 0.3, 0.1, 0.1 );
if((self.name == "bot1")) self setOrigin((697,1057,185)); //must be the same as the base origin
if((self.name == "bot1")) self linkto( modela);
wait 0.5;
modela movey ( 700, 30, 0.1, 0.1);
self waittill ("death");
self unlink();
modela delete();
How it works: it spawn's a script_model with co-ords assigned to it, then the player is linked to the script_model and moved to a position (or to other script_models), pretty basic aye?
The third method is spawning a script_model, linking the ai to it and moveto a player's origin, this is similar to hawkin's UnDead patch but it's not finished just yet.
I'll update the third method when i get it fully working, since there will be two versions of my ai zombie modes currently unfinished. I hope to have a release date for it soon. Thanks for reading and hope these comes to some sort of use in the future!

I wanted to really bad lol i spent like 2 weeks trying to get cod 4 ai bots, but i couldn't ever get them. If you are making it for cod 4 and need help with map edits or somthing like that let me know. (I know u dont need help what i mean by this is maybe theres a map you dont want to screw with lol)
Yeah i've been working on an ai zombies patch for awhile now, ive got two versions coming soon. one of them is normal gameplay with ai attached to certain people so it will move towards them where ever they move, and i have a pathed map edit one too but ive only done about 3 map edits so ill give you a shout if i need anymore done

This is also the only way that me and Amanda found to attach yourself to a chopper without it freezing when you detach..
Spawn chopper > attach script_model to chopper tag > attach self to script_model

That's exactly true, you can use this to attach your player do any script_origin or script_model which is quite useful! if you can find pre-stocked targetnames on SD bomb's etc... then you can link stuff to them too
Btw are you resuming your work for CoD? or have you stopped completely?

Apart from occasionally helping people with stuff on here I haven't touched it since I finished my Legacy patch a year ago.
Don't have it on PC, don't have a JB PS3 anymore either.
Like I said before, COD is done now, but I still have the occasional idea, so never say never I guess

I always assumed that the clonebrush/solid models were tied into the maps.. If you use forge mode to pick up a car, the trigger radius for the solid car stays where it was and you just pick up the non solid model for the car..
But I'm certainly not going to spend any time trying to work it out now and I'm not sure there's much left to do for COD4 after Mine, Amanda's and EliteMods patches.. we pretty much made everything there is to make..
( This is not counting the amazing stuff the PC modders have done over the years of course)

Thank you Uk_ViiPeR for this!
I'm think of making an A.G.R. Killstreak script.
The hard part is creating a path for every COD4 map (not looking forward to that).:\
