-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.
git-svn-id: https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/trunk/GameSource/ja2_v1.13/Build@5238 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!

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
git-svn-id: https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/trunk/GameSource/ja2_v1.13/Build@5207 3b4a5df2-a311-0410-b5c6-a8a6f20db521
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
git-svn-id: https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/trunk/GameSource/ja2_v1.13/Build@5205 3b4a5df2-a311-0410-b5c6-a8a6f20db521
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

o Corretly positioned the strategy sector inventory and the zooming animation in all supported resolutions
o Reworked tooltip text (line-breaks) for the new sector inventory buttons
git-svn-id: https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/trunk/GameSource/ja2_v1.13/Build@5189 3b4a5df2-a311-0410-b5c6-a8a6f20db521
o Fixed a few positions for the sector inventory in widescreen resolution
o TODO: The file "Map Screen Interface Map Inventory.cpp" needs to be adjusted (The "xResOffset" needs to be added to the x-positions of the images) for widescreen resolutions
git-svn-id: https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/trunk/GameSource/ja2_v1.13/Build@5187 3b4a5df2-a311-0410-b5c6-a8a6f20db521

-Ammo box code added to HR's crate code
-Splitting a crate/box also automatically refills half empty magazines
-new pathing arrows for map screen not included
-code for scouts to know where enemies are going doesn't appear to work... but i'm not sure it was completed.
-lots of gobledy gook (chinese?) comments turned back to english

2. Fixed potential infinite loop bug if no ammo crate or box is present and (ctrl+)shift+a is pressed.
3. Changed Ctrl click on mapscreen from Delete to auto-place item in selected merc or vehicle inventory.
