Hello,
- pedestrians are currently unable to leave their sidewalk except at
intersections
- if there is no dedicated sidewalk, pedestrians may walk on the road.
Vehicles will react to them and vice versa
- there are plans to allow full remote control for pedestrians but it's not
implemented yet (https://github.com/DLR-TS/sumo/issues/2872)
- to achieve the desired effect, you can configure a vehicle to look like a
pedestrian (setting vClass="pedestrian" in the <vType>) and then remote
control it using vehicle.moveToXY. It will interact with real pedestrians
when on a sidewalk and will also take an effect on road vehicles when
leaving the sidewalk. Depending on the required level of detail you may
want to active the sublane model for that as well (so vehicles can
circumnavigate your fake-pedestrian when the road lane is wide enough). The
only downside of this approach is, that your fake-pedestrian will only walk
in the forward direction of an edge unless controlled remotely.

regards,
Jakob
