I remember that
I just was too lazy to fix it in the V1
Ok, names it is. And about tooltips... I never used 3ds2vxl, so I don't know what it looks like ... But I do have DZ's permission to use his guide as the proper help file, so this should cover the serious help file. If anyone wants to provide short descriptions as tooltips, go ahead, I'll surely add them, and credit you.

Name or ID? Anyway, one picture is worth a thousand words - next screenie will show you in a couple of days

Anyway, everything else that's there is also used by the game's stock AI file. Even though Droppod= doesn't do anything, and no one can figure out what Group= does...
It think it is a good idea to maintain the properties ordering as a convention - the same that's used in the stock AI file. I like finding the Name= listed first and the Script= and Taskforce= listed last, etc |
The ordering is an easy task, I will keep the original order and leave them all in.
There will probably be a 'DontUse' box next to those map-only tags which would prevent the editor from saving the flag when 'DontUse' is checked.
