AI tanks rolling backwards after order to move to new location.
New, NormalPublic

Description

AI in tracked vehicles will do side to side turns while reversing during certain pathfindings.
On flat ground, it comes to stop and resume moving normally, however on slopes the vehicle will start rolling backwards faster uncontrolled until it collides with an object that stops it.
This problem is particular severe in hilly maps like Stratis.

Steps To Reproduce

Edit: Place a tank on a slope facing uphill. As a commander, use map to order move to new location.
AI will begin rollback.

Create several tanks with crew on map stratis and give them move waypoints cycle the waypoints like patrol.
Spectate the tanks and observer them eventually do the side to side turn and reverse. On slopes they'll roll backwards fast until they're stopped by a collision.

Added faster steps to reproduce.
