Eye sign means that enemy sees you.

This works as ENEMY_HIT_COUNT option, but for player mercs.
Possible values: 0 - 4
2) SOLDIER_TOOLTIP_DISPLAY_SUPPRESSION_INFO = TRUE
Show additional info in tactical tooltip:

You can see exact weapon name only on short distances, range calculation is similar to dynamic tooltips and based on soldiers actual viewing range and experience.

1) ENEMY_HIT_COUNT in ja2_options.ini accepts 2 new parameters:
3 - show damage as white asterisks
4 - show damage as red asterisks
Number of asterisks is scaled (maximum 5): >0, >10, >30, >60, >100
2) Suppression tactical tooltip now shows suppression points from last attacks.
Previously it was always = 0 because ubSuppressionPoints value is cleared after each attack.
3) It is now possible to show suppression values above soldier, just as hit count.
There are new options in ja2_options.ini
Possible values:
0 - do not show
1 - show on moving hit counter
2 - show above soldier
The values are color coded:
Suppression is light gray
Shock is yellow
AP loss is blue
Morale hit is green
SHOW_SUPPRESSION_COUNT = 0
SHOW_SHOCK_COUNT = 0
SHOW_AP_COUNT = 0
SHOW_MORALE_COUNT = 0
This option defines if values are shown as numbers or asterisks (1..5, using scale)
SHOW_SUPPRESSION_USE_ASTERISK = FALSE
This option defines if only 1 asterisk is shown or several (1..5) to represent value
SHOW_SUPPRESSION_SCALE_ASTERISK = TRUE
Show suppression above soldier during enemy attack. All other values are shown after attack, when HandleSuppressionFire function is calculated.
SHOW_SUPPRESSION_COUNT_ALT = TRUE

- randomized gear kits are now an ini setting: MERCS_RANDOM_GEAR_KITS = TRUE/FALSE.
I made the gear randomization optional because it seems to cause trouble for people that don't use AIMNAS. SO hopefully this still lets them enjoy the random merc feature!

- Moved "EnemyTaunts.xml" to "EnemyTaunts\EnemyTaunts.xml". Required by EXE Revision >= 6659
- Added new Taunts_Settings.INI property: TAUNT_CENSORED_MODE (set to TRUE if you want a more lighter version of enemy taunts)

- new INI option: IMPROVED_BOMB_PLANTING
- With new option IMPROVED_BOMB_PLANTING = TRUE, if you hold SHIFT key while planting new mine, then another mine with same item id will be taken automatically from your merc's inventory. If no such item found, any mine will be taken. If you plant tripwire-triggered mine, then only tripwire-triggered items will be taken. This new feature work only in realtime.
If you are making tripwire network, then this feature can be used to plant another tripwire item with network and hierarchy settings taken from previously planted tripwire. You just plant tripwire as usual, selecting it's settings from dialogue, then if you plant another one while holding SHIFT key, those settings will be used for new tripwire, instead of showing you dialogue
- I hope this small improvement will save you some time for building large and complicated defensive minefields.
