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.
It uses the new struct gItemSettings which is populated in function void LoadItemSettings() on game start.

POSSIBLE_AIM_CLICK_ADDED_SHOTGUNS was added to adjust the number of aim clicks for shotguns. The default is 1.
Also fixed the broken aim click modifiers for Gunslinger and Sniper.

When terrorists had fixed placements in MercProfiles.xml they were not taken into account for the terrorist counter. Now all terrorists count no matter if fixed placement or random placement.

- Fixing bad APs deduction when using hand grenades, mortars, rocket launchers, grenade launchers and attached grenade launchers from different stances and need turn to your target.
Details:
- Add APs cost for stance change and turnover for mortar and rocket launchers.
- Rocket launchers cannot be fire from prone any more as there are no animation for that stance.
- Attached grenade launchers now take raise gun cost for launcher instead for gun.
- No more problems with APs for grenades from different stances and turnover, add proper costs for crouch too as someone add animation for that.
- Fix wrong APs deduction for grenade launcher from prone and turnover in general.
- Fix incorrect values for APs cost under throwing/launching cursor.

Instead the game will now use the attachment class AC_EXTENDER.
With this we can have more extenders that can be damaged and fall off and also other extenders that are not damaged by shooting.

- improved processing of sector stash (opening/closing)
- improved loading speed of save games
- improved processing of items droped by militia (most noteable after autoresolve)
- and some other code related changes

Notes:
removed some functions, still in code so but renamed to *_OLD() because they are from Sirtech and should be kept as I have read in "§18) If possible, we don't just delete the old code, but comment it out (or #ifdef it out) for reference. We delete it only if it's really necessary."

The pSoldier that was passed to the ability check was the owner of the item and not the person that does the repairs.
So no Technician trait on the owner -> no repair...

More secondary attributes are now shown on general page of UDB. The following item tags were added:
<Damageable>0
<Metal>1
<Sinks>1
<TwoHanded>1
<BlockIronSight>1
The new icons were added to ItemInfoSecondaryIcons.sti.

When loading a savegame mercs that became available automatically where not enabled because they couldn't meet a condition anymore. This condition will not be checked anymore because it is not needed for functionality.

Fix and Enhancement for Repair Ease display in UDB
- Repair Ease is now displayed for all items and not only for weapons because other items use the <bRepairEase> tag too
- fixed tooltip display for explosives, half the values didn't show tooltips
There are new icons for repair ease display (ID 34 and 35 in ItemInfoWeaponIcons.sti). The old icon was changed to green color (ID 10).
The colors are used to show if the item is repairable and by whom:
- green for items that can be repaired by anyone
- yellow for items that need a technician or NPC to repair them beyond repair threshold
- red for items that have <Repairable> tag set to 0 in items.xml

- Fix more problems of deducting APs when try to shoot from different stances but need turn to your target.
Details:
- Problems raised after introduction of conditional APs charge in case that you need to rise gun and turn, so charging only higher of this to two value if not prone.
- Another problem is alternative fire mode from hip which is currently allowed only in stand so was missing such condition as well for change scope mode if going down.
- As run into problems from above for our merc, need adopt it to CalcBestShot for AI too.

- Some APs fixing for throwing knives and backpack, with doing some correction to my previous changes.
Details:
- Do some correction and missing parts to ch58 and ch69.
- Throwing knives will add you bonus for throwing knives to same target as was suppose from v1.12 but never works.
- Fix AI use gun calculation for throwing knives instead for throw.
- Fix incorrect showing and deducting APs when try to shoot from prone with backpack or throw from prone and crouch positions with turning in general.
- Fix cheating when sLastTarget is set just for raise gun in that direction, this was always done after you fire.

When ADVANCED_REPAIR was active it wasn't even possible for technicians to repair weapons and armor beyond repair threshold when MERCS_CAN_DO_ADVANCED_REPAIRS was set to TRUE.

- Add alternative fix for CalcBestShot which should remove existing APs problems maybe even create AI deadlier then ever ;-)
Details:
- Existing CalcBestShot simply became inadequate and buggier for so many add ons to game, so compiling with dnlCALCBESTSHOT is alternative option which calculate all turning, stance and raising gun cost for different stances and all available scopes, and after all hoping fix incorrect APs calculation as well, hitrate formula is adapt to 100AP system, also try to optimize a bit to get less AICalcChanceToHitGun calls and to use with different stance decisions.
- From ch58 aiming for burst and autofire was disabled as was causing invalid action handle due to incorrect APs calculation so from now aiming AI also use aiming before bursting.

The description of this modifier says that "Higher is better."
Before this fix a higher value actually made target tracking worse. Now it should work like it was supposed to be.

Each setting in ini now has the effect that the user expects, he now sees the correct restrictions on the map, and is able to adjust manually as neccessary
- RESTRICT_ROAMING = TRUE
activates the manual adjustable restrictions based on exploration and/or conquest.
Any of the following settings can be mixed as you like
- ALLOW_MILITIA_MOVEMENT_THROUGH_EXPLORED_SECTORS = TRUE
Exploration based: any liberated sector is potentially accessible for mobile militia.
You need to load the map and defeat all enemies. Walking through on strategic view is unsufficient!
- ALLOW_DYNAMIC_RESTRICTED_ROAMING = TRUE
Conquest based: Liberating a town will increase the accessible sector count.
See Data-1.13/TableData/Map/DynamicRestrictions.XML
- ALLOW_MILITIA_MOVEMENT_THROUGH_MINOR_CITIES = TRUE
Mobile militia can move thru cities where militia training is not allowed(e.g. Tixa, San Mona, Omerta,...)
In earlier versions those cities where allready included in DynamicRestrictions.XML which rendered this setting allmost useless.
NOTE:
Older savegames have still the 'gray' sector restriction set.
Those will be converted to 'red' according to the settings in Ja2_Options.INI on load.

- Magically appeared reinforcements for enemy and militia just turn after they are called from now could be delayed and randomized.
Details:
- Practically all enemy reinforcement which can populate available slots was always appeared next turn after they are called so now we have game settings under "Strategic Gameplay Settings" for fine tunning enemy and militia reinforce entry:
MIN_DELAY_ENEMY_REINFORCEMENTS enemy reinforcement will arrive minimum this number of turns after they are called, if 0 then is disabled.
RND_DELAY_ENEMY_REINFORCEMENTS additional random delay added to minimum when reinforcements will arrive after they are called.
MIN_ENTER_ENEMY_REINFORCEMENTS minimum enemy units which will enter after above delay is over.
RND_ENTER_ENEMY_REINFORCEMENTS additional random enemy units to appear after passing delay.
MIN_DELAY_MILITIA_REINFORCEMENTS enemy reinforcement will arrive minimum this number of turns after they are called, if 0 then is disabled.
RND_DELAY_MILITIA_REINFORCEMENTS additional random delay added to minimum when reinforcements will arrive after they are called.
MIN_ENTER_MILITIA_REINFORCEMENTS minimum enemy units which will enter after above delay is over.
RND_ENTER_MILITIA_REINFORCEMENTS additional random enemy units to appear after passing delay.
- After first delay ends any other reinforcement appeared more frequently or if already arrive (but no free slot), they will pop up soon after slot is free.
- Add option NO_REMOVE_RANDOM_SECTOR_ITEMS under "Strategic Gameplay Settings" to prevent permanent random removal of your sector items.
- Add missing function DisplaySectorItemsInfo.

Before it was not possible to aim in realtime mode because the UI didn't support it. It still doesn't support it but from now on the game will assume that we used the maximum number of aim clicks. Turn based combat is not affected by this.

o The new music code is now surrounded by a define called NEWMUSIC
o Jazz will rework the new music code in the future
o For now we have the old music code back, which should fix the mentioned bugs
-> Music in the main menu is starting again from beginning when going from preferences screen back to main menu screen
-> The battle tracks can play only 5-15 second then they start from all over again
-> The win music after tactical battle never run
-> ...
