This video will be showing you how you can spawn a custom infantry
squad, that will patrol an area you define. No scripts required, all using
default game functions.
It will also show you how you can create zones that will spawn patrols,
you can do this with a radio trigger, or with an area trigger.
==========
The code:

_squad1 = [getmarkerpos "spawn1", resistance,
["",""]] call BIS_fnc_SpawnGroup;
[_squad1, getMarkerPos "spawn1", 150] call BIS_fnc_TaskPatrol;
hint "The enemy squad has been spawned!";

Best to type in the code, and not copy, if you copy there might be
a chance of acquiring hidden characters then the code wont work.
=============
Note: The 150 in the code is a distance in radius which means the patrol
will move to about 150 meters from the center of the marker, so you can increase
that number or reduce it.
