I'm inviting in discussion all who knows Il-2 FMB. That to make comparison.

Finally for me a very interesting update, graphically i've been convinced with the sim long ago, and make missions with il-2 is something i expend a lot of time.
.
Well, now to the questions. By the way, if the question has already been asked and answered, please ignore it or say its already answered and i will look for it. I'm kind of short on time and can't watch the whole thread for the moment.
1) What is an "AI Actor"?. Can't guess what could be.
2) What is the function of "Process Roads"?
3) What is the function of Smooth ship path?. Is it necesary for ships to make cuved turns?
4) Is it possible to have some kind of filter with the list of objects on the mission?
5) Apparently, with the "Sort By" (1st picture of seccond post) we will now have some kind of filter. Excellent. Is it possible to know what option we will get there? To suggest some new ones, if we find it handy, and possible.
6) I don't know if it will used much, for historic reasons, but i would like to have the possibility to select several skins for a plane/planes, and that randomly inside the sim one of those skins is displayed, but if i play the mission again, same plane could be with another paintscheme.
That means, that in the "skins" option, to have something like "skin group" with a subbutton where you select the group of skins.
7) Important point mentioned previously about which speed the FMB makes reference. For help coordinating flights, it should be ground speed, but if its unreachable some indication that its not possible would be very helpfull.
Still, would like to know if its ground speed, IAS, TAS or other the one set on the FMB.
The radio silence clickmark. Will it work when the aircraft is going toward that waypoint, or once passed that waypoint?
Also, will it work all the waypoints after that or once passed the next waypoint will cease to function?.
9) If you can, please would like to know a little more about the "Inbetweening". What is it for and how it works. I cant figure out what is it. I don't understand it.
Group Properties
10) What is "Script Spawn C"?
11) What are "Detonators"? Something related to the fuse bombs?
12) Each flight of the squadron is only a single aircraft or it can be several aircrafts? If its the seccond, how do you assign several aircraft to each flight?.
13) With the "idle" option the aircraft will spawn on the runaway or the taxi?
14) Can we assign where on the airfield the "spawn parked" aircraft or flight will spawn.
15) Please, add also filter to the squadrons names. Like bomber squadrons, fighters, reconnaisence, mediterranean squadron, scotland squadrons, and so on. So we dont have to scrall through hundreds of squadrons like we have to do now with IL-2. It gets terrible tedious.
That is all for now.
Thanks for this informative update!
