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.
git-svn-id: https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/trunk/GameSource/ja2_v1.13/Build@7758 3b4a5df2-a311-0410-b5c6-a8a6f20db521
Multiplayer Bugfix:
- Improved (fixed) interrupt endless clock when enemy interrupts (CO-OP game) (tested by Woquit)
- Override turn (ALT + E): Now it is possible again for the server to give the turn back to itself
- Updated MP Version Number to 3.1
git-svn-id: https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/trunk/GameSource/ja2_v1.13/Build@7587 3b4a5df2-a311-0410-b5c6-a8a6f20db521
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.
git-svn-id: https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/trunk/GameSource/ja2_v1.13/Build@7566 3b4a5df2-a311-0410-b5c6-a8a6f20db521
- externalised texts for cleaning, food, corpse handling and covert ops
- tripwire can now be defused even if it does not have a blue flag. When having a wirecutter in the main hand, click on the planted tripwire while crouched, the defuse dialogue will show up.
- corpses spawned from items will behave according to the zombie spawn rules
- fixed a few glitches with the covert ops trait
- fixed a bug that gave the 'mounted' bonus on a roof
git-svn-id: https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/trunk/GameSource/ja2_v1.13/Build@5546 3b4a5df2-a311-0410-b5c6-a8a6f20db521
- food and water levels are lowered every hour, eat food to survive
- not doing so leads to various penalties and ultimately death
- added food items for that purpose. Food can degrade over time. Rotten food poisons.
- Mercs automatically consume food if hungry/thirsty and food is in their inventories
- for more info, see http://www.bears-pit.com/board/ubbthreads.php/topics/307396/Re_Mercs_need_food_and_water_t.html#Post307396
- this feature requires new STI files from the GameDir trunk.
- added a bunch of filler variable to the soldier type, so hopefully savegame compatibility can be maintained easier in the future.
WARNING: This will break savegame compatibility
git-svn-id: https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/trunk/GameSource/ja2_v1.13/Build@5411 3b4a5df2-a311-0410-b5c6-a8a6f20db521
o if set to off, no zombies will spawn. This can also be changed in mid-game
o for more information on how this works and how to set it up, see http://www.bears-pit.com/board/ubbthreads.php/topics/295746/Zombies_WH40K_and_more.html#Post295746
o with the tag <PoisonPercentage>, you can now poison guns or ammo. This is the percentage of damage dealt that will be poisonous (see zombie thread for an explanation)
o The zombie option can only be enabled in a single player game
o AI fix: to prevent the endless clock problem, the AI now ends the turn if the same actor calls the decision routine over 100 times in a single turn.
git-svn-id: https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/trunk/GameSource/ja2_v1.13/Build@5313 3b4a5df2-a311-0410-b5c6-a8a6f20db521
- 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!
