Spawning Paths, and Standing Still

... Not in this case.

Well, guys,

fftank1pathspawn:
level.vehiclepoint.targetname = fftank1path
level.vehiclepoint[0] = ( -23.34 -5519.62 261.91 )
level.vehiclepoint[1] = ( 639.60 -5542.65 260.56 )
level.vehiclepoint[2] = ( -23.34 -5519.62 261.91 )
level.vehiclepoint[3] = ( -723.48 -5460.32 258.13 )
for(local.nodes = 0;local.nodes < level.vehiclepoint.size;local.nodes++)
level.vehiclepoint[local.nodes] = spawn info_vehiclepoint origin level.vehiclepoint[local.nodes]
end

That didn't work at all.
Is there seriously no way to just get one node to connect to another, or getting a script to be like "if guy is here, make him go there"?

actually... node connection may be done in the .pth file. try that trick with the pathnodes again and before you run it delete the .pth file again.

"May" as in you know it will work, or you're just guessing? 'Cause there's no way to directly edit a .pth file. It's just gibberish.

HOLD UP!
OMFGOMFGOMFG
I figured it out! It's all so obvious, now!
When I put "targetname" "nameofpathnode", then all I have to put after that is "target" "nameofsecondpathnode". That's it! Hooray for us! Thanks for all the help, guys.

the looping script i gave you does that...

i think my head just imploded.

Clearly your looping script didn't work, seeing as how... It didn't work. You never even tried it out yourself, but I did, and I also tried out my previously mentioned successful method.
No offense. I love the help! Just, how can you be sure the script worked if you've never used it?
