Pilot animations

[IckyATLAS]

It would be nice (cherry on the cake) to have some additional pilot animations like:

 

The arm waving when the cockpit is open.

The arm opening and closing the cockpit.

The pilot head (cockpit open) that looks  peeks out of the cockpit right or left when taxiing on the taxiway to the runway. 

The pilot coming out of the plane and stay on the ground near the plane, after landing and after stopping the engine. 

If the plane is in flames or badly damaged, if he is crashed (and pilot is alive)  then the pilot gets out and runs.

When starting the game with the plane parked then the pilot would be beside his plane and enter in the cockpit. I know this needs to tweak the animation for each plane.

 

Just dreaming here, but who knows maybe one day ............ dreams may come true ?

That should depend on whether or not you press ctrl-E. If you choose not to, we should have animation of the pilot writhing in agony, as he slowly burns to a crisp.

It would be super-nice if the default animation of the Pe-2 gunner was changed so he looked like he was doing his job.  Not sitting idle on the jump seat as if he's daydreaming on the bus.

I too would like to have more animations for the pilot...  the head tracking is ok, it sometimes looks like the guy in the other plane is looking at you And signals to you but he’s just wiping his goggles.  

 

Longer animations for signaling would be cool, I miss the ones from rise of flight... especially the “thumbs up!”   

Not saying the pilot has to put his hand through the glass, just for the animation to last longer ... right now it looks like a twitch... :s

 

so player to sim pilot head tracking accuracy would be nice,  I also think that idea of pilot leaning when the canopy is opened would be cool to...

 

getting out out of a crashed and especially burning wreck is a must...

dont really care about having to walk around just want the pilot to jump out and have a smoke or something

 

And then there’s radio comms with ai....

The same for the ventral gunner in the He111, sitting on his seat in the fuselage instead of lying behind his gun.
