#PLAYERTASK

* Extended use of marker ops:
-- Enable the function like so:
--          mycontroller:EnableMarkerOps("TASK")
-- Then as a player in a client slot, you can add a map marker on the F10 map. Next edit the text
-- in the marker to make it identifiable, e.g
--
-- TASK Name=Tanks Sochi, Text=Destroy tank group located near Sochi!
--
-- Where **TASK** is the tag that tells the controller this mark is a target location (must).
-- **Name=** ended by a comma **,** tells the controller the supposed menu entry name (optional). No extra spaces! End with a comma!
-- **Text=** tells the controller the supposed free text task description (optional, only taken if **Name=** is present first). No extra spaces!
