function bool HigherPriorityThan (UTDefensePoint S, UTBot B, bool bAutoPointsInUse, bool bPrioritizeSameGroup, out int NumChecked)

determines if this point is higher priority than the passed in point

Parameters:

• S - the point to check against
• B - the bot that's checking
• bAutoPointsInUse - whether other bot(s) on this team are using the automatic defensepoints (so allow low priority)

• NumChecked - the number of usable points so far

Returns:

whether this point is a better choice
