Hi allen. 

You actually hit on something. By mentioning that your map pack was in v10,
it caused me to check it out to see what you'd done differently. Turns out
that in a point file you need an = sign after the at_zero flag and its
value, I was doing it with a space for some reason. Now things are dying
properly again for me. I'm not sure if it'll solve my AI issues as well, but
its helped. 

I hope you won't mind your map being an example of good v10 conversion lol. 

Thanks for the pointer. And thanks both for responding.
