"Ideas for improvements of infantry only maps" Add vehicles

I already have working bot paratroopers, they appeared first time years ago and were implemented properly last year september/october. You can read more here Since then I improved the bots a lot to act like real players (spawn where players do, have names and money pool), physically get into vehicles, join transports, fly aircraft, react to radio commands, follow mouse pointed orders etc. I just don't have time to blog about it.

This was an especially big issue with Gamma's version of Antlion which had an immobile version of the cargo truck that you now see on Pipeline/Metro. Not only could you hide inside it but it was indestructible. And it was very close to one of the spawning areas - forget whose team though - meaning the other team could use it to spawncamp (wait for people to spawn, kill them, hide in truck forever when things get hot, rinse and repeat) assuming someone else wasn't spending the whole match sitting inside it for the express purpose of preventing that. I really wonder what was going through CJ/PA's heads sometimes.
