- 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.

- Ignore firing into dying and breathless targets.
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.

- Fix problem AI cannot fire when mercs are on roof, AI calculate chance to hit from all stances.
Details:
- Sometimes AI not fire when target is on roof, happens in situation when previous target was on ground because bLevel was not update.
- Instead to calculate ChanceToHit only from STANDING from now AI calculate chance for all stances, so AI should be more eager to attack.

- new variables for additional strength, dexterity, agility, wisdom and experience level due to drugs, traits etc.
- new flagmask for soldiers (so no new variables have to be added in the future)
- fix: stat-altering drugs work again and can now have a higher magnitude
- drug-altered stats now show up purple
- fix: option screen help texts were missing
WARING! This will break savegame compatibility

2. USE_XML_TILESETS moved from JA2.ini to JA2Options.ini
3. New Feature - Ctrl+Click on an item with an item in hand to auto-attach/merge them. Attach works with stacks. Merge only works on single items, for now at least.
4. New Feature - To accompany Quiet Training, there are now Quiet Repairing and Quiet Doctoring options.
5. Bugfix - inseparable attachments of attachments were getting lost again when using ctrl+f/the map screen button to remove attachments
6. Bugfix - INT8 overflow error causing vehicle repair to actually lower its status
7. GasMask tag in items.xml can now be applied to helmets as well as face items.
8. Bugfix - AI code was referencing hard coded GASMASK item number instead of looking for the tag
9. Bugfix - "break;" was removed in Explosion Control.cpp, thereby causing mustard gas to deal out fire damage. (Not sure if this was deliberate? But the new implementation differs from the JA2 standard, so it should be added to JA2Options.ini at least)

o This allows you to toggle between a gun's different scopes via the '.' key. Y
o You get the boni for vison, tunnel vison, sight range, scope magnification etc. only for the scope you use.
o 2 new ja2_options.ini properties: USE_SCOPE_MODES, DISPLAY_SCOPE_MODES: Allows the display of an icon on your gun, to tell what scope is currently in use. If it is a scope, the magnification factor also gets written. Both options can be found under the [Tactical Gameplay Settings] section in the ja2_options.ini
o new tag in items.xml (<attachmentclass>) now enables to specifiy what an attachment can do. At the moment used by grenades/rockets/scopes/sights. Items.xml changed accordingly, modders need to add this tag for those items.
o More infos: First post in: http://www.ja-galaxy-forum.com/board/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=303038&#Post303038
- WARNING: This feature breaks savegame compatibility.
- New Feature: Tripwire-triggered mines (by Flugente)
o This allows creating complex networks of tripwire that can detonate multiple mines attached to them.
o 2 new Items.xml tags: tripwireactivation, tripwire
o More infos: http://www.ja-galaxy-forum.com/board/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=303205&#Post303205
- Overheating addition (by Flugente)
o Severe overheating now temporarily reduces a gun's accuracy. This exact amount is displayed in the UDB.
- Bugfix (by Flugente)
o Removed foregrip as an attachment from the Saiga 12K

** Merged Source Code from Development trunk, for the Spring 2011 Release **
****************************************************************************
o Development Trunk (Revision: 4444): https://81.169.133.124/source/ja2/branches/Wanne/JA2%201.13%20MP
o This trunk (the official 1.13 source trunk) will only be used for fixing bugs. No new features will be added here.
New Features are only included in the Development trunk
o !!! After we have fixed a bug here in this trunk, we should MANUALLY merge the bugfix in the development trunk !!!

Made direction variables more consistent as unsigned chars. Several function prototypes updated for this.
Many memory leaks plugged: External options, video overlays, laptop file lists, tactical message queue, strategic pathing, autobandage, merc hiring, detailed placements, crate in Drassen, tactical placement
New functions and attributes for soldiers in LUA (still for debugging at best): Soldier.APs (current APs), Soldier.changestance (changes stance, uses game heights)
File catalog ignores .SVN directories (game load speedup)
Fix CTD in mouse regions
JA2 window now refuses to move to negative coords
Checks to prevent DirectX-related infinite loops due to minimizing and task switching
Invading enemies should now appear on the borders even when reinforcements disabled in .ini
Suppression should no longer work on mercs in medium water
Infant/Young creatures use restored spit instead of Molotov
Creatures begin with their 'guns' (spit) 'locked and loaded' (cartridge in chamber)
Further fix to AXP and AlaarDB's weapon ready check: Now 'firing' is always counted as 'ready'.
Prevent mercs from falling and flying back through obstacles
Check whether battle group is even set before testing its location for battle setup
Burst spread locations now limited to 6, the limit within the soldier struct
Extra burst spread locations zeroed out so that they aren't used unless necessary
Spread code now only shoots at locations in the spread, and will shoot at all 6
Only mercs in the sector where autobandage happens will be made to stand up after it's done
Throwing a grenade at the tail of the plane in Drassen should not result in a CTD
Reset attack busy count when loading a new sector

Camo and other effects are taken into account when aiming at a body part
Max Distance Visible is more consistent in being calculated based on the soldier and direction rather than a fixed number

Added missing #includes
Added LUA scripting and console
Changed the way tracers are visualized, so they work more like real tracers instead of a light fountain
Fixed signedness of many grid variables used in GetMouseMapPos calls
Fixed enemy weapon choosing: Sometimes a mortar is chosen but later rejected, but the grenade class was not reset. Caused assertion failure
Added checks so enemies don't try to chuck RPG grenades with their hands
Now possible to shoot a someone in the head if he's in water
Fixed InitSightArrays to also clear soldier interrupt duel points. This was causing an assertion failure elsewhere in the code because the interrupt list still had soldiers on it sometimes when this function was called.
Soldiers are much less willing to forfeit their turn over an attempt to use more APs than they have
Removed early setting of muzzle flash. This would allow enemies to get an interrupt before you even fired.
Fixed item dropping by AI. If AI tried to drop something while standing it would cause deadlock
Change to greatly speed up closing the sector inventory window in an unloaded sector
Added conditional compile flag to always give robot weapon ready advantage, even for 360 degree sighting
Check builddefines.h for the conditional flags. Of greatest interest might be LUA_CONSOLE. This will cause the game to bring up a command console when run. However this console is severely lacking in many areas. If anybody knows of an open-source terminal/console that could be used instead, it would be appreciated. The existing console does bad things when you try to close it, and since it counts as a separate app, it pauses the game while it has focus.
LUA scripting is very limited, basically just proof of concept. There is one global variable, the Soldiers array. An array index gives you the soldier in that slot in the currently loaded sector. The soldier has a few things that can be accessed: name (short name); fullname (long name); grid (current grid #, can be changed); walkto(grid) (function to walk to another grid); runto(grid) (function to run to another grid)

-moved the running out of lighted areas code to after the main Red AI - this will prevent enemies from running into and back out of lighted areas; however, it might also mean that they end up running straight through the light sometimes
-enabled AI to fire at opponents seen by other AIs on Expert & Insane

-rewrote the AI sniper code to take advantage of readying weapons. Added new SNIPER order for soldiers that's assigned when a soldier has a sniper rifle (80% chance) or a scope (40% chance).
-spreadsheet update

- Bug fix: STRAIGHT_RANGE was not initialized properly causing enemies become invisible
Added changes from 2006-05-14 2 by Madd Mugsy
- Added Lesh's Explosion data externalization code for exp. animations, sounds, etc.
- Fixed some armor issues with ceramic plate-type attachments being attached to non-vest slots
- Removed hard coded item indexes from sun goggle / night goggle swapping, now it picks the best possible goggles
