- 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!

Camo Kits can now only be used to paint naked skin which usually means face and hands. Clothing will take care of the rest Together they can reach 100% camo.
CAMO_KIT_USABLE_AREA = 5 in Ja2_Options.ini sets the area that can be painted.
CAMO_LBE_OVER_VEST_MODIFIER = 0.2
CAMO_LBE_OVER_PANTS_MODIFIER = 0.6
These two set the amount of camo that armor vest/pants can provide if LBE is worn over them.

- New Mine avoidance for civilians (by Sevenfm)
Civilians can now avoid player placed mines.
CIVILIANS_AVOID_PLAYER_MINES = TRUE in Ja2_Options.INI takes care of that. I set the default to TRUE which will allow players to use mine fields in city sectors.

- if the terrain allows it, an empty sandbag (item 1540) can be filled to a full sandbag (item 1541). You need to have a shovel (item 1015) in your second hand. You will notice the new hammer cursor
- by using a full sandbag, you can build a sandbag barrier
- by using a concertina stack, you can build a concertina wire barrier
- this only works if the current map has sandbags/concertina wire in its tileset
- with a shovel in your hand, you can remove a sandbag barrier
- changed the size of shovel so it can actually be put in inventories. It was also necessary to remove its ability to be used as a melee weapon.
- for further info, see this thread: http://www.bears-pit.com/board/ubbthreads.php/topics/305822.html#Post305822
