I mean so that they will move intristically as soon as they are spawned.
I was messing this the robot 1 trying to get a grenade launcher that will spawn a small tank that carries a minicannon. The tank will then procede to move forward autonomously.
When it encounters an enemy it will fire it's cannon and gib into smoke and rubble.

At least that is the theory.

From reading this topic, I had an interesting idea come up.

Have a gun that fires an actor out. And that actor will have an idlepath exactly like it's walkpath, just like that AI clone.

Yeah, but they don't have the AI to use their guns.

Who knows. Perhaps you could have them gib easily, and gib explosively, making them into walking bombs.

He could theoretically make an explosive that looks like a tank out of really low friction material.

Well, I edited the Clone launcher to make this.
It seems to work fine, except the clone will only walk to the right.
With a little touching up this could be a great idea :D

Wheeled actors are actually possible. Can you guess who made it? It shouldn't be that hard.

There are no actual wheels, although limbpaths can be abused into them, among other methods.

Double idiot, wheeled vehicles are possible, its just that they dont work the same as you want them to, they are actors

Amorobotics made a jeep, with rotating wheeles and everything (It dorve, its win), he didnt officially release it, he posted it with a bunch of other mods quite awhile ago
