Meant for controlling the AI without using explicit pilot#control.
Functions
| apply (plts, func) | Applies a function to one or more pilots. |

| guard (plts, pos) | Makes the pilot go to a certain position and guard it. |
| hyperspace (plts, target) | Makes a pilot try to hyperspace to target while not disabling most functionality. |
| patrol (plts, waypoints) | Makes a pilot patrol a set of waypoints indefinitely |
| setNoComm (plts, state, msg) | Sets the no communication message of a pilot. |
| setTaunt (plts, tauntmsg) | Sets the taunt message of the pilot. |
