Just place ai in a map, and name is test_xxx for simple reasons.
SP has objectives that are added, and you need to complete the objectives (that's pretty obvious lol
).
Need help with your SP map contact me via msn

easiest way... is not in scripting
with a german selected press "i"
give it a target: "player"
give it a targetname: "german"
then select APPLY
with the player_start selected press "i"
give it targetname: "player"
then select APPLY
do this for all ur Germans

This is really not necessary! The player will have targetname 'player' by default, it's a very bad idea to targetname your start postion player also. If you do this, you've just turned $player into an array.
Germans don't need a target to attack someone. Actually it doesn't have any use.
To force Germans to attack the player, type key 'attackplayer' without a value. Otherwise they should still attack you if they see or hear you.

ok one last time...
there is something that you enter into the script for your single player map.. and makes it so you dont have to type no friggin keys or values or any shiz like that... its just a simple line that you enter into your script and walla you have AI that actualy attack you rather than stand there and make wierd faces at you.

They don't stand there making faces. They rather attack you from afar. If you have set up pathnodes, they will come running and charging at you.

exec global/ai.scr does
NOT 'activate' AI.
I've seen this so often and always I just have to deny it
. Even the original developers used in wrongly
.
This script is used (can be used) for enemy respawning with $enemyspawner entities.
