- Requires GameDir r2050.
- new background property: <dislikebackground> allows mercs to dislike specific backgrounds
- Fix: snitches did not correctly prevent misbehaviour
- Fix: morale event was not handled
- Fix: DropDowns did not refresh when using the arrow buttons
git-svn-id: https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/trunk/GameSource/ja2_v1.13/Build@7240 3b4a5df2-a311-0410-b5c6-a8a6f20db521
- 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.

o The new music code is now surrounded by a define called NEWMUSIC
o Jazz will rework the new music code in the future
o For now we have the old music code back, which should fix the mentioned bugs
-> Music in the main menu is starting again from beginning when going from preferences screen back to main menu screen
-> The battle tracks can play only 5-15 second then they start from all over again
-> The win music after tactical battle never run
-> ...

o See: builddefines.h: #define ENABLE_ZOMBIES (then you can turn on/off Zombies in the ingame option screen)
o Poison system is still in the code and not combined with the option "Zombie MOD"
o Gamers reported on the Bears Pit, that an executable compiled WITH the Zombies mod enabled makes the game unplayable slow in tactical screen after a few minutes in turn based/realtime

o See: builddefines.h: #define USE_HIGHSPEED_GAMELOOP_TIMER
o Gamers reported on the Bears Pit, that an executable compiled WITH the highspeed timer enabled makes the game unplayable slow in mapscreen mode when doing certain actions (repair, ...). That is the reason, why I made the compilation of the highspeed timer optional. Currently it is disabled.

- 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

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.

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 Shift-R reload now looks at both boxes and crates in sector items and merc's inventory to reload, and tops off magazines in inventory as well. Only possible outside of combat.
o Ctrl-Shift-A still creates crates as per usual, with some fixes to ensure all ammo is caught on the first press.
o Shift-A now creates ammo boxes in the same loop. They mostly behave like crates, but fit in mercs inventories.

o Added ja2set.dat.xml file (WF map version in WF maps folder) to be used instead of ja2set.dat file (ja2.ini setting added) For now, if you want to play vanilla instead, just change the setting in the ini (see comments in file).
o Added P4-P9Items image files (up to 5k images each) and tileslots. 1.13 core items will continue to use Guns and P1-P3Items for the foreseeable future. P4-P9 can be used by customizers/modders to avoid conflicts with Guns/P1-P3 items. TODO: Need to discuss a strategy for this in the forums.
o Added in Ambient/0.bad and 32.bad to avoid an exception in the code.
o Updated the XML Editor
o Standardized the text on all the ammo items.

o The following feature apply when you walk/sidestep with weapon raised:
-> limited angle of view, but you can see more farther when the weapon has a scope
-> better change for interrupts if you see an enemy
-> less APs and BPs when shooting, because the weapon is already raised
-> It should cost more APs when walking. Maybe you can export the additional AP and BP modifier to the APBPConstants.ini
*** Increase squad size to 8 (800x600) and 8 and 10 (1024x768) ***

** 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 !!!
git-svn-id: https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/trunk/GameSource/ja2_v1.13/Build@4446 3b4a5df2-a311-0410-b5c6-a8a6f20db521
- bugfix: Bug #51: Speck sends wrong mail if any of the 4 new guys (Text, Stogie, Biggens, Gaston) level up.
- added missing description texts for IMP skill rooftop sniping and camouflage (also translated in german and russian)
git-svn-id: https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/trunk/GameSource/ja2_v1.13/Build@1796 3b4a5df2-a311-0410-b5c6-a8a6f20db521
- bugfix: Hand to hand combat (knifes, claws, ...) was disabled in auto battle. This was done in revision 51 because of CTDs that always occured there. I enabled hand to hand combat and tested ~50 auto battles. No single CTD. It seems that the CTD has been fixed since revision 51.
git-svn-id: https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/trunk/GameSource/ja2_v1.13/Build@1788 3b4a5df2-a311-0410-b5c6-a8a6f20db521
Prevent merc in slot 0 from disappearing due to errant schedule. Still need to find and fix schedule though
Prevent attempts to turn or climb roof when soldier collapsed
Fix problems when mortar or RPG randomly assigned to a soldier but cannot be added for whatever reason
Pathing favors beginning path on orthogonal and using as few turns as possible (mostly old behavior).
Prevent interruptions when soldier climbs up, which can cause fall into building just below the target roof position
Fix pauses due to soldiers hurt in previous turn
Fix soldier path not reaching destination when thrown by explosion damage or heavy gunfire
Restore pathing to cave and underground exits
Fix too many AI ending up on the roofs
git-svn-id: https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/trunk/GameSource/ja2_v1.13/Build@1588 3b4a5df2-a311-0410-b5c6-a8a6f20db521
Fix militia issue in auto-resolve: Militia were not always being promoted even when it said they were. Since first X slots are for militia already in the sector, militia from other sectors are not sorted by rank. This actually affects battle outcome!
Added fix to editor to skip cached tiles in RaiseWorldLand. Otherwise it can crash when invoked within the game.
ja2_2005Express projects:
Added output directory for JA2 exe based on environment variable JA2GAMEPATH
Restored editor built by default for debug mode
Removed #define LUA_CONSOLE. It is no longer relevant.
git-svn-id: https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/trunk/GameSource/ja2_v1.13/Build@1081 3b4a5df2-a311-0410-b5c6-a8a6f20db521
Fix: If only some of mercs go to a lower level (mine, basement, etc) but do not choose to "GO TO SECTOR", sector is still inaccessible from strategic map. However, watch for triggers that might happen on first visit to a sector, that fail.
git-svn-id: https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/trunk/GameSource/ja2_v1.13/Build@1076 3b4a5df2-a311-0410-b5c6-a8a6f20db521
Replaced Windows console with freeware console implementation. Activate in windowed mode with \
Added error and quit if JA2 started in window mode in >16bpp color depth
Fix to enemy sector investigation: Was deducting from redshirts when elites investigated
Fix AWOL militia (need additional fix to prevent them from being redistributed during after reinforcements)
Fix to tanks to add them in their original spot when a new one cannot be found. Should modify to remove old wreckage in this case.
AI no longer tries to fire mortar when no room for it
Tanks no longer try to throw knives
git-svn-id: https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/trunk/GameSource/ja2_v1.13/Build@1030 3b4a5df2-a311-0410-b5c6-a8a6f20db521
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)
