The new Item_Settings.ini is there to host modifiers for item properties in the different XML files. For now it is only used for the Weapon Overheating feature to adjust parameters based on gun class.
The ini can hold any modifiers, for example modifiers for range, armor rating, damage, weight, AP to load/fire etc. Of course somebody has to add that to the game code first. ;)

These KITS are Limited to Merc Lvl and prices, it would be tempting to give them "the perfect loadout" but it would take away from the fun and balance of the game.
*List of Kits
Ammo: Extra ammo at the expense of an other item.
Gun Choice: an alternative weapon.
Combat: Mercs drop their Med/Tool Kits in favour of extra firepower.
Fast Rope: Only seen in upper tier Mercs. The idea was to create a basic kit for when you know you are landing in an enemy occupied sector. (Could be change to "Hot LZ")
CQC: Close Combat
HTH: Hand to Hand
LBE: If you feel like splashing the cash for some extra carry capacity.
Paramedic: A kit for Doctors on the front line, dropping their MEdkit for a FirstAid Kit and a Smoke Grenades.
Auto/Heavy WPNs: Skill specific kits.
Sapper: Desroying/Constructing stuff.
Breach: Using explosives or ballistics to open doors.
Covert: Silent weapons/ammo.
Night OPs: Flares etc...
There are more KITS but they should be self explanatory. It's a lot of info to edit, so if there are any mistakes/oversights let me know and i'll change them. Same goes for any suggestions.
I tweaked these Mercs in order for OST/NST to match and to improve one or two.
Dyno & Smoke: Electronics added to OST to match Demo.
Mouse: Stealthy/Stealthy added to OST Melee removed from NST
Moses: Given Devolve evolution.
Hector:Knifing expert in OST.
Needle: Knifing OST.
Screw: HTH (OST) HTH/Tech (NST)
Elroy: Strealth/Lockpicking.
Carp: Removed Deputy and gave him Teacjng in OST/NST. He's pretty useless at the moment, at least this way he can be a Militia Trainer.
Doc: He had Teaching/Deputy in NST. Changed it to Doctor in NST and no skill in OST.

o There was a wrong condition in LUA script (In the ja2 source code this condition works, but not in LUA!!!)
-> WRONG: if ( giLairID ) -> this is always triggered as TRUE and therefore never starts the cutscene
-> CORRECT: if ( giLairID ~= 0 ) -> if the quest has not started ( value != 0), start the cutscene

Expert Snipers won't get a 10x scope anymore. They get a 2x scope instead. A 10x scope is useless at the start and when we buy or find a sniper rifle it usually has a 10x scope anyway.

IRON_SIGHT_PERFORMANCE_BONUS
This makes the base aperture in NCTH smaller by x percent when using Iron Sights or other 1x sights.
LASER_PERFORMANCE_BONUS_HIP
LASER_PERFORMANCE_BONUS_IRON
LASER_PERFORMANCE_BONUS_SCOPE
These also make the base aperture in NCTH smaller by x percent when a laser is used with the respective sight. This replaces the old Projection Factor if one of the values is != 0. To continue using Projection Factor leave these three parameters at 0.
