* _destinationPosition -> Array. Position of waypoint destination.
* _group -> String. CfgGroups name 
* _faction -> String. CfgGroups faction
 
* Optional Params:
* _debug -> Boolean. Enable debug output
* _waypointPlacementRadius -> Scalar. Random placement radius. http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Mission_Editor:_Waypoints#Placement_Radius
* _waypointType -> String. Type of waypoint. NOTE: at the moment only MOVE is supported by the profiler. http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Mission_Editor:_Waypoints#Select_Type
* _waypointMovement -> String. Speed of waypoint movement. http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Mission_Editor:_Waypoints#Speed
* _waypointCompletionRadius -> Scalar. Completion radius of waypoint. http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Mission_Editor:_Waypoints#Completion_Radius
* _waypointTimeoutCounters -> Array.  Timeout counters. http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Mission_Editor:_Waypoints#Timeout_Counters
* _waypointFormation -> String. Formation type. http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Mission_Editor:_Waypoints#Formation
* _waypointCombatMode -> String. Combat mode. http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Mission_Editor:_Waypoints#Combat_Mode
* _waypointBehaviour -> String. Behaviour type. http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Mission_Editor:_Waypoints#Behaviour
* _waypointDescription -> String. Description. http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Mission_Editor:_Waypoints#Description
* 
*
* Usage:
*
* init.sqf:
* ALIVE_spawnProfileGroup = compile (preprocessFileLineNumbers "fnc_spawnProfileGroup.sqf");
*
* Create a trigger or call in script:
*
* Syntax:
* [array, boolean, array, string, string, boolean, scalar, string, string, scalar, array, string, string, string, string] call ALIVE_spawnProfileGroup;
*
* Example(s):
* [getMarkerPos "nmeGrp01_spawn_pos", false, getMarkerPos "nmeGrp01_dest_pos", "10_men_ME", "caf_ag_me"] call ALIVE_spawnProfileGroup;
* [getMarkerPos "nmeGrp01_spawn_pos", false, getMarkerPos "nmeGrp01_dest_pos", "10_men_ME", "caf_ag_me", 
  true, 0, "Move", "Full", 0, [0,0,0], "Delta", "Open Fire, Engage At Will", "Aware", ""] call ALIVE_spawnProfileGroup;
