- Covert Ops: Bleeding is deemed suspicious only if COVERT_DETECTEDIFBLEEDING is set to TRUE.
- renamed special prisoners to officers.
- lowered the priority of enemy troops becoming medics
- prisoners in player-controlled prisons now use the prioner-colour scheme used by Shank and Dynamo

- Flagmasks are unsigned, and should be called and treated as such
- Fix: experience gain from interrogation was too high
- Fix: chance of a prisoner becoming militia was calculated wrong
- default weight maximum for MOVE ITEM assignment increased from 30 to 40 kg
- Fix: snitches report the same event multiple times
- Fix: snitches treat vehicles as persons
- Fix: selection of launchables is inefficient, an does not take into account wether items are depending on day/night cycle
- new key combination: in strategic, pressing [CTRL] + [E] wile both a merc's inventory and the sector inventory are open will fill the merc's inventory with sector items
- trivial code cleanup
- if prisoners are taken in a sector that houses a prison, that prison can also be selected to house them
- Fix: distributing newly taken prisoners in a prison sector no longer redistributes all prisoners, only the new ones
- GetClosestFlaggedSoldierID can also be called without evaluation of sight
- Fix: Covert Ops: throwing/lobbing items or shooting rockets is deemed suspicious behaviour
- Fix: boxing was broken by loading a savegame
- Fix: campaign history rarely recorded kills in autoresolve
- There is no reason why the IDs that boxers are reset to before they are reinitialised would ever need to be altered by a modder. Required script change in stable GameDir r2024.

- ja2_options.ini: MAX_BACKPACK_WEIGHT_TO_CLIMB, USE_GLOBAL_BACKPACK_SETTINGS
- First setting is sBackpackWeightToClimb which is the maximum weight a backpack can weigh and still allow you to climb with. The sBackpackWeightModifier in items.xml can modify that number by either making it harder (positive number modifier) or easier (negative number modifier). If the sBackpackWeightToClimb is -1 (default) then the option is unused.
Second setting is fUseGlobalBackpackSettings which if true (default) uses the same rules for all backpacks, while if false it checks for the fAllowClimbing tag in items.xml, and if that is true you can climb with said backpack.
Both options can be used at the same time, so you may climb with (for example) a malice backpack that weighs less than 5kg (or 50 hg) but not climb with a radio set.

- lowered ENEMYROLES_TURNSTOUNCOVER
- increased ENEMY_MEDICS_SEARCHRADIUS
- new option: ENEMY_MEDICS_WOUND_MINAMOUNT controls how serious a wound must be before a medic considers it worthy of attention
- new option: ENEMY_MEDICS_HEAL_SELF: medics can heal themselves
- new option: ENEMY_OFFICERS_SURRENDERSTRENGTHBONUS adds a team surrender strength bonus for officers
- tanks cannot become medics, and can't be treated by them either
- Menubutton for Role symbol toggle is red if off and green if on
- wounded soldiers seek medics, max range is ENEMY_MEDICS_SEARCHRADIUS / 2
- direct sight line between medic and target is no longer required
- if hostile civilians allied to the army are in sector, their surrender strength is added to the enemy team

Requires GameDir >= r1987.
- If an enemy is spawned with a radio set, he is more likely to become a radio operator.
- It is now possible to mount a gun on prone allies if you are facing them on the right angle.

- If a merc repairs up to a threshold below 100, display a slightly different message
- Due to radio operator jamming, AI red alert can fail (intentional part of the trait). In that case, forbid the soldier from using radio again this turn, as this would be a fruitless waste of APs.

2 - auto fast forward only invisible enemies
3 - auto fast forward all enemies
AUTO_FAST_FORWARD_MILITIA:

- Fixed problems after hosting game in strategy screen (crashes, options not clickable, ...)
o The problems seems to be the reworked taunts initialization from revision 6640. I did not trace down the exact problem, but taunts should anyway be disabled in a multiplayer game
o Now taunts are disabled in a multiplayer game which fixes the above problems

- You can also open them with VS 2012
- I just changed the toolset for all projects to V100 (VS 2010) instead of V120 (VS 2013), because I don't have VS 2013 installed. If anyone can't compile with VS 2013, we simply switch back to V120 toolset

- ridiculous amount of tags: attack, hit, miss, kill, head pop, blinded, type of attack, is target a zombie...
- ripostes to merc quotes,
- taunts can now make noise,
- bumped up amount of taunts to respectable 733, mostly thanks to your contributions guys,
- accidently squashed bug with incorrect noise notifications ("hears scream" instead of "hears explosion" etc.)
Ripostes
At the moment enemies can react to quotes "enemy detected", "1st enemy detected", "multiple enemies detected", "bullet flew by", "under heavy fire", as these are most likely to be used in combat. In the first three cases, riposting enemy will be chosen randomly from all enemy witnesses, latter two - last enemy to attack this merc will taunt.
Enemy's riposte will come as soon as merc quote is finished.
Noisy taunts
Taunts can be handled like other noises in game - shots, explosions, etc., meaning:
- they will be displayed only if someone from our team is close enough to hear them,
- they can be heard even if you don't see enemy (with twist of his name changed to "unknown voice". Yay.)
- volume of taunts is configurable in .ini.

- Weapons.xml tags <bRecoilX> and <bRecoilY> are now FLOAT type values. This allows to differentiate weapons by smaller steps.
- Items.xml tags <RecoilModifierX> and <RecoilModifierY> are now FLOAT types as well.
- Items.xml tag <PercentRecoilModifier> will now be displayed in UDB advanced tab.
- Item_Settings.ini has new modifiers for gun type specific <bRecoilX> and <bRecoilY>. This allows modders to quickly adjust recoil values for any gun type.
- fixed UDB description for <RecoilModifierX> and <RecoilModifierY>
- All recoil calculations now use FLOAT values for more precision.

Gas grenades now don't cause direct damage on hit anymore. They will cause damage on start of turn or if you move inside a gas cloud. Of course gas mask still helps (except for creature gas and fire).
Every tile moved inside a gas cloud deals a percentage of the normal damage (default 10%). This is set in Item_Settings.ini (DAMAGE_HEALTH_MOVE_EXPLOSIVE_MODIFIER, DAMAGE_BREATH_MOVE_EXPLOSIVE_MODIFIER).
Tiles can now have multiple gas effects on them. Unfortunately this is not visualized (yet).
Smoke doesn't make a character immune to other gas types anymore.
The 25% chance of taking damage while moving through a gas cloud has been removed. Damage is now applied 100% of the time.
- New modifiers for explosive damage in Item_Settings.ini (DAMAGE_HEALTH_EXPLOSIVE_MODIFIER, DAMAGE_BREATH_EXPLOSIVE_MODIFIER). These could fully replace EXPLOSIVES_DAMAGE_MODIFIER in Ja2_Options.ini but I left that general modifier untouched for now.
- Some compiler warning fixes.

-SGP debugging now works again (corrected some typos and one missing include).
-Memmory debugging works again (wrong types corrected)
-Laptop screen heigth macro and all references is now usable. (was 'C: y + A' 'D: B - C' which translates to 'D: B - y + A' instead of 'D: B - y - A')
-Laptop screens do not need to rerender as often then before as the laptop screen width/heigth macros works now and invalidating screen will do the trick -> almost no render calls neccessary.
-MercProfile.ubMiscFlag was used instead of .ubMiscFlag2 -> enter sector action schedule for soldiers which dont need to be insertered is now canceled as intended

- 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.

- 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.

- Fixing Tank bursting shells problem, and some other tank related bugs.
Details:
- There are several problem with Tank handling, main was forcing to use gun although already decide to use machinegun which lead to bursting shells.
- Another one was related to machinegun usage as current autofire handling is not supported by TANK BURST animation which had limit to 6 rounds, so decision to fire anything different then 6 lead to complete wrong APs deduction.
- Fix some invalid animation decision as current tank cannot raise gun or move or check for cover.
- Fix problem with wrong return (INT8) although after introduction of 100AP system APs variables are INT16 which create bad APs calculation for tank.
- Fix general problem with burst and autofire when soldier decide to when swap weapons.

- Fixing AI problems when they use launchers.
Details:
- Seems from implementation of 100AP system and new attachment system and new kind of GL launchers, AI use them improperly or not used at all. Bugs was:
- Bursting grenades from non burst launcher.
- Not use GL if grenade is already in it
- Not firing from rocket launcher if couldn't find hand grenade.
- Refusing to launch grenade from attached GL if couldn't find grenade in other pockets.
- Never fire from single rocket launchers like LAW.
- Incorrect chance to throw calculation for GLs which lead into no decision to throw.
- Whole cylinder of grenades was permanently remove from pocket after reloading launcher.

Details:
- AI will ignore attack breathless targets if there are other in better condition.
- AI will not fire into dying targets.
- AI should avoid go into creature gas.

- Basic support for reducing AI friendly fire.
Details:
- Friendly fire grids are defined during best shot calculation then AI decide depending of soldier character to fire or take other action. Still in autofire accidentally friendly hits could be higher depending of bullets spreading.
