Mod request: How to populate airfields - axal - 17.01.2009

Hi!
First of all, thank you to all modders for the great work...!
I am really full of admiration...you have given new life to IL2!

By myself, I have no idea how to make a mod, and if my proposal is hard
or impossible to realize (or already suggested and I missed it), well, be clement, please...!
I thought that maybe is possible to modify the little AI pilot that when bailed out
once on ground begins to run. The same is in the sim as paratrooper or driver
of vehicles (it comes out when a vehicle is hit)
If we could slow it until to walk instead of running (and without to disappear)
and transfer his control from AI to player, that is to have it in the FMB
like an object with waypoints, so we could populate airfields with people.
I say airfields because I like a lot, at take off, to see distant activity in the airport,
but with this mod we could also animate targets, stations, docks, etc
Regrouping many ones in a sole object could even do a platoon... and to reskin
the pilot as a soldier or a mechanic, this at least I know, would be not so difficult...
Hope there is something good in all this, let me know!

Or, as has been suggestec before, making a "vehicle" of marching troops. Could be used for the same purpose
