Mission Editor option to set stationary vehicles hot or cold (for FLIR)

[Don Rudi]

With the new improved FLIR modelling, it would be very helpful to have an option in the ME to set stationary vehicles as "hot" or "cold".

Background - sometimes I as a mission builder want to place vehicles in very specific locations and/or formations, for instance partially hiding under trees. When placing these vehicles in the ME the engine is off, thus the vehicles are cold on a FLIR image.

But it would be nice to pretend the vehicle just stopped in that position and is therefore still "hot". Or it simply has its engine running.

For several trucks we have an option to install or remove the canvas, maybe one could add a similar option for "engine cold/hot".
