Smart Bots for some pretty Maps

Lopa4 following the development of the Battlegroup42 mod for a long time and he would like to contribute to the development of its single player component. Lopa4 was able to correct a defect on the 4407-Ihantala map, when the Soviets behaved passively and did not go on the attack. True, it is still not possible to win it, because it seems to me that there are too many Finns techs and panzerfausts. Also, he could not play this map due to lags (maybe he just have a weak computer). Lopa4 tried to remove the "vegetables", but the lags still remained, so it seems to me that the problem is all the same in the oversaturation of such a small map with different techs. He also added bots to the 4308-Azov map, but they boats often fall under neutral ships and fall into the water. And also they are very poorly oriented in the bays and often get stuck. In addition, Lopa4 have not yet added the possibility of bots landing on the islands, but this is not so important, because for victory just need keep even sea points.

In the future, he plan to refine this, if you do not mind?
