2. ReInitMergedItem now returns a list of attachments that were unable to be reattached or dropped onto the ground (ie: non-default inseparable ones). These were previously just being tossed into oblivion.
3. Item transformations now try to attach any inseparable attachments that couldn't be attached to the first result to the other results.
4. Item merges will now try to attach any attachments on the second item in the merge to the first result. This was already happening for the first item in the merge.

o if a gun/attachment has the boolean tag <BlockIronSight> in Items.xml, a gun's iron sights wont be selectable while selecting scope modes.
o if using dual weapons, only iron sights can be used
o new attachmentclass: AC_IRONSIGHT (4194304) for attachable iron sights (display on gun is different from reflex sights, no other differences... yet)

o Minor feature added: Shift+RMB click on a gun with ammo inside, will now unload its magazine and place it on your cursor (if not holding anything already). You don't have to go to the weapon description box to unload it.
o Added Throwing trait support for NCTH (was left out before) and added a minor tweak to STOMP+NCTH compatibility.
o Fixed a bug in NCTH when aiming levels of very fast-to-aim guns could be lowered below zero during calculation, which resulted in suddenly giving the gun 8 aim levels making it extremely slow to aim instead. This occurs when you use a pistol with reflex sights with a Gunslinger merc. In the "AllowedAimingLevelsNCTH" the value "aimLevels" was defined as UINT8, so when it goes below 0, it becomes 255 and is then capped at 8. Changed it to signed.
- IIS fix (by Sandro)
o Interrupts on hearing now occur only in meaningful situations - either when enemy attacks us or comes very close to us.
o Added some other IIS tweaks and fixes (first of all the top status bar should now work properly).

o This JA2 demo executable is as close as possible to the original JA2 demo, but with the 1.13 features!
--> No laptop, disabled strategy actions, auto merc hired, only P1 maps, ...
o To build the 1.13 executable, just enable the "JA113DEMO" define in builddefines.h
o The 1.13 demo executable will read from ja2_Demo.ini instead of ja2.ini
o You also need the "Data-JA2Demo" folder from the official 1.13 SVN GameDir: https://ja2svn.dyndns.org/source/ja2_v1.13_data/GameDir
o Once you start the game with the demo executable, you will notice the "START DEMO" instead of "START NEW GAME" in the main menu
o Multiplayer is disabled in the demo executable
- There is another new define called "JA113NODEMO" (by Jazz)
o See builddefines.h
o If this define is enabled, a special version of 1.13 is build
-> Disable all meanwhiles, emails, blocked quest with queen, alien queen

o Now maps saved with a map editor version from 1.13 revision <= 5216 should now work AGAIN with a compiled version (ja2.exe and Map Editor.exe) from THIS revision
o INFO: Maps saved with a map editor version between revision 5217 and 5269 will have incorrect data!

o Merc can stay crouched while picking up items and when stealing items from prone(/collapsed) enemy, he must crouch (will do automatically). It really feels much more intuitive.

-during the drug upkeep, the strength value of the soldiers was set to 1, which is why they were exhausted very fast by what little inventory they had
Also - Now we read in (and OR together) a variable number of AvailableAttachmentPoint tags from items.xml.

- allows creating of complex tripwire networks, that behave differently depending on where they are activated. Different networks can overlap, allowing a wide range of trap network designs
- added network-specific view methods (ALT + Shift + C)
- added new dialogues when planting tripwire
New feature: remote defusing of mines (by Flugente)
- the new items Remote Defuse and Remote Combo allow to remotely defuse a bomb that has been planted. Simply select a frequency for defusing upon planting the mine. This frequency is of course treated differently than a detonation frequency.
New feature: directional frag explosions (by Flugente)
- the tag <Directional>1</Directional> in Items.xml allows an explosive to be directional. Frags caused by its explosion will fly in the direction determined by the merc planting them.
- the tags <ubHorizontalDegree> and <ubVerticalDegree> in Explosives.xml determine the arc in which the frags will fly.
New feature: makeshift mines (by Flugente)
- you can now create mines out of grenades: simply merge tripwire with them. You can then use them like regular mines. They can also be activated by your tripwire networks.
- With a simple item transformation in the UDB, you can transform a makeshift mine back to a grenade and a piece of tripwire.
Minor changes (by Flugente)
- metal detector now only works if used in hands
- wire cutters give a bonus if in hands while defusing tripwire or tripwire-activatable mines/bombs
- added new message boxes with 8 and 16 buttons
- increased the maximum number of bullets that can be on screen from 200 to 1000 (necessary for mass claymore explosions)
- the tags <Detonator> and <RemoteDetonator> are not used anymore, as those properties can be set via flags in <AttachmentClass>. For now, they still remain in the xmls though.
WARNING! This will break savegame compatibility!

o A define ENABLE_ENCYCLOPEDIA defines, if the encyclopedia code should be compiled
o What is happening here is encyclopedia has a lot of really big structures (ENCYCLOPEDIA_LOCATION) and then a lot of arrays of size NUM_SECTOR, NUM_PROFILES, NUMITEMS which are fairly sizable themselves.
o What the problem with doing this is when you need to allocate memory it typically needs to go to virtual memory to get large blocks of memory (malloc and related routines all do this) but you only have 2GB worth of virtual space as a pointer is 32 bits and user mode gets half of that 00000000-7FFFFFFF for addressing. This statically allocated space is taking up 7/8ths of the virtual address space. When animations or maps need to be loaded there might not be enough virtual space left due to fragmentation.
o To see the amount of committed memory, open TaskManager and add the "Committed Memory" column to the view

Finally fixed CalcMaxTossRange so that it pulls the correct grenade launcher item instead of just the first one, thereby allowing more than one range value per set of launcher items that launch the same grenades.

- Display bombs/mines/tripwires planted by your team
Red is for bomb/mine, yellow is for tripwire and orange is for both at the same tile.
o ALT + END: only display as long as the hotkey is pressed
o ALT + SHIFT + V: toggle permanent display on/off
- Display ALL (also enemy) planted BOMBS / MINES / TRIPWIRE when the selected merc has a metal detector in his hand
o ALT + DEL only display as long as the hotkey is pressed
o ALT + Shift + C toggle permanent display on/off

o This attachment fits most ARs, Rifles and SMGs. When attached, moving the gun from the main hand to the rifle sling slot does not cost APs when 'Inventory Manipulation costs AP' is turned on.
o When a merc would drop his gun because of damage taken, it is instead moved to the rifle sling slot if possible.
o A gun in the main hand or rifle sling slot cannot be stolen when a rifle sling is attached.
- Tripwire Feature Update (by Flugente)
o proper pictures for tripwire (by smeagol)
o Tripwire no longer activates diagonally.
o When multiple bombs/tripwires are on a tile, only those activatable by tripwire get removed upon deflagged.
- Scope Mode Feature Update (by Flugente)
o Fixed a bug that would crash the game when displaying guns in inventory

o Disabled the usage, because it seems to cause some problems when loading the maps (reported by Smeagol)
o Now it is possible again to choose if we want the XML tileset structure or the binary one (ja2.ini -> USE_XML_TILESETS)
o If we later need the additional P4-P9 items we can enable it again and have to check carefully what causes the problems
