Multiplayer Bugfix: Reverted the "endless interrupt bugfix" for the pure client, because it was not working correctly, and the server could not press ALT + E to give the turn back to the client, if stuck.

Multiplayer Bugfix:

Multiplayer Bugfix: Fixed endless clock on enemy interrupt on the server, by reverting the non working interrupt fix which was introduced in revision 5623
- INFO: The endless clock on the client still occurs on certain enemy interrupts, but this can be fixed by pressing ALT + E on the server and giving the turn back to the client.

- See "Info_BriefingRoom.txt" and "BriefingRoom_Mission1.png"
*** Improved interrupt system (IIS) ***
o This system changes the way interrupts work. See: http://www.ja-galaxy-forum.com/board/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=290787#Post290787
o Option system (see ja2_options.ini: IMPROVED_INTERRUPT_SYSTEM)

o You can set an AP/BP modifier when walking/sidestepping with weapon raised in APBPConstants.ini: AP_MODIFIER_WEAPON_READY
o The following feature apply when you walk/sidestep with weapon raised:
-> limited angle of view, but you can see more farther when the weapon has a scope
-> better change for interrupts if you see an enemy
-> less APs and BPs when shooting, because the weapon is already raised
-> It should cost more APs when walking. Maybe you can export the additional AP and BP modifier to the APBPConstants.ini
*** Increase squad size to 8 (800x600) and 8 and 10 (1024x768) ***
o Squad sizes (dependend on the screen resolution) can be selected in the start new game screen
