GroupID  parent_group_id 
)
static

Create a new group.

Parameters
vehicle_typeThe type of vehicle to create a group for.
parent_group_idThe parent group id to create this group under, INVALID_GROUP for top-level.
Returns
The GroupID of the new group, or an invalid GroupID when it failed. Check the return value using IsValidGroup(). In test-mode 0 is returned if it was successful; any other value indicates failure.
