Pathnode and console question

Is it possible to spawn pathnodes into a map. If so, can you get map coordinates while in game using the console? Also I see that you can type in the console "editscript" and a window with your game script will appear. You can change the script there, but when I change the script it says "Do you wish to save changes? (yes/no/cancle)" How do you enter yes?

pathnodes can not be spawned , the game make a .pth file when it starts if there isn't one already .

What does the .pth file do? The reason I ask about spawning pathnodes is that I would like to battle in the MP Ardennes map. I like this map. But I can't play it on line it lags really really bad. I have spawned ai into the map but they will only fight in the one street area. I decompiled the map and in that area there are many pathnodes. I wish there were pathnodes all over the map. Can't add them in radiant cause you know what a mess it would be to fix.

Well spawning pathnodes makes mohaa crash, spearhead probably too.

i think we should share what we learn that it might help others

)
i used above method in spearhead and nothing seemed to work,,,the problem was i was editing the script,,,said it was saving,,,but when i would type restart in the console,,,to check my progress there was no change,,,then i decided to move the dm script from the custom pk3 into the standard dm folder,,,,and suprise,,,it had been saving but to the standard dm folder,,,at this point i guess ya know what i did,,,i just removed the custom pk3 from the mainta folder and dropped the bsp and script into the standard dm folder,,,now im in bizness,,,hope this helps others,,,see us noobs always need a little more info lol
