- 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

- externalised vehicle seats (TableData\Vehicles.xml) influence position of passenger, field of view, ability to shoot and being hidden,
- seat can chosen by using ctrl+RMB on vehicle (ctrl + LMB just takes the first visible seat)
- seats can be changed or swapped while inside vehicle,
- remade JSD files for cars,
- vehicles aren't transparent anymore,
- vehicles are louder than people, depending how fast they move.

- Streamlined vehicle controls - no more selecting driver and vehicle separately, switching displayed APs and other esoteric activities. To move vehicle just select its driver and you're good to go. If you click on vehicle in tactical, also its driver will be selected automatically. Besides driving car, driver can perform other actions normally.
- Vehicle's APs, health and fuel are displayed on the steering wheel - thanks to Buggler for idea. Vehicle APs are treated as a resource (so if car changes driver mid-turn, it won't go any further than it would).
- Added option Tactical Interface Settings > ADD_PASSENGER_TO_ANY_SQUAD. If you order passenger to exit vehicle by clicking on the seat belt, he'll be added to new squad, so if you ordered six passengers to exit one by one, you'd end up with six new squads. With ADD_PASSENGER_TO_ANY_SQUAD = TRUE, passenger will be added to any existing squad with empty slot if possible.
- Added option Tactical Interface Settings > PASSENGER_LEAVING_SWITCH_TO_NEW_SQUAD. If you order passenger to exit vehicle by clicking on the seat belt, by default you get switched to his new squad. With PASSENGER_LEAVING_SWITCH_TO_NEW_SQUAD = FALSE you'll switch only if exiting passenger is the selected one.
- Cosmetic fix: changed display above vehicle from "*Merc's name* (VEHICLE)" to "*Merc's name* (*Vehicle's name*)" and colour from yellow to white (since mercs in vehicle are controllable and yellow is reserved for mercs on assignments).
- Fixed passengers rotation. Again.
- Fixed vehicles getting "tired" - lowered APs due to fuel below max. They can move the same as long as they have any fuel.
- Fixed unrelated bug: clicking on any empty slot in team panel would select merc with id 0.
- Fixed unrelated bug: switching to squad with less mercs would cause team panel to still show skill tooltips for mercs from previous squad on empty slots.

Fixes (by Buggler)
- Allow hotkey squad switching to include squads in vehicles as well
- Fixed wrong sign used for bSpeedModifierTrainingMilitia and bSpeedModifierTeachingOthers
- Fixed usMobileMilitiaTraining value not read causing mobile militia training speed to be doubled

- To control vehicle, click on it or on the steering wheel in team panel under driver's portrait.
- Vehicles have two gears - slow drive and fast drive, switchable just like walking and running ('S', 'R', double-click).
- Vehicles working: Ice Cream Van, Hummer, Jeep, El Dorado and, potentially, tanks.
- Passengers can be selected and ordered to open fire from the inside
- You can also open inventory screen for passengers, pass or throw items, etc.
Normally vehicle is treated as any other merc and has its own APs. It has obvious disadvantages - it's possible to drive in the middle of the enemy group using vehicle's 100AP,
and then use all your mercs inside vehicle with their still full APs to kill everything that moves at point blank range - with even the driver participating!
- To prevent that you can set Tactical Gameplay Settings > AP_SHARED_AMONG_PASSENGERS_AND_VEHICLE_MODE with following calculation methods

- Covert Ops: Bleeding is deemed suspicious only if COVERT_DETECTEDIFBLEEDING is set to TRUE.
- renamed special prisoners to officers.
- lowered the priority of enemy troops becoming medics
- prisoners in player-controlled prisons now use the prioner-colour scheme used by Shank and Dynamo
Requires GameDir >= r2028.

- 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.

- ja2_options.ini: MAX_BACKPACK_WEIGHT_TO_CLIMB, USE_GLOBAL_BACKPACK_SETTINGS
- First setting is sBackpackWeightToClimb which is the maximum weight a backpack can weigh and still allow you to climb with. The sBackpackWeightModifier in items.xml can modify that number by either making it harder (positive number modifier) or easier (negative number modifier). If the sBackpackWeightToClimb is -1 (default) then the option is unused.
Second setting is fUseGlobalBackpackSettings which if true (default) uses the same rules for all backpacks, while if false it checks for the fAllowClimbing tag in items.xml, and if that is true you can climb with said backpack.
Both options can be used at the same time, so you may climb with (for example) a malice backpack that weighs less than 5kg (or 50 hg) but not climb with a radio set.

Bugfixes (by anv)
- autofeeding bug,
- drop items on dismiss optimization,
- effectiveness of suppression was increased/decreased with every influenced soldier if set to other than default 100,

More visual enemy gear info (by Sevenfm)
- Show additional info in NCTH cursor (press ALT) (ADDITIONAL_NCTH_CURSOR_INFO = 2)
-> You can only use this feature at certain distance
- Updated 'show enemy weapon' feature (SHOW_ENEMY_WEAPON = TRUE, SHOW_ENEMY_EXTENDED_INFO = TRUE)
- Now it can show armour and face items, too. Useful for OCTH users (SHOW_ENEMY_AWARENESS = TRUE)
- Show total value of damage, absorbed by armour in last attack (SHOW_HIT_INFO = TRUE)

Requires GameDir >= r1987.
- If an enemy is spawned with a radio set, he is more likely to become a radio operator.
- It is now possible to mount a gun on prone allies if you are facing them on the right angle.

1) PLAYER_HIT_COUNT = 0
This works as ENEMY_HIT_COUNT option, but for player mercs.
Possible values: 0 - 4
2) SOLDIER_TOOLTIP_DISPLAY_SUPPRESSION_INFO = TRUE
Show additional info in tactical tooltip:
- APs lost due to suppression
- Suppression Tolerance
- Effective Shock Level ( Shock level modified by traits and backgrounds. This value is compared with current suppression tolerance to determine "cowering" effect )
- AI morale level
3) SHOW_ENEMY_WEAPON = TRUE
Show enemy weapon name above soldier - after health, name and rank.
You can see exact weapon name only on short distances, range calculation is similar to dynamic tooltips and based on soldiers actual viewing range and experience.

see: http://www.bears-pit.com/board/ubbthreads.php/topics/172712/16/Code_Snippets.html
1) ENEMY_HIT_COUNT in ja2_options.ini accepts 2 new parameters:
3 - show damage as white asterisks
4 - show damage as red asterisks
Number of asterisks is scaled (maximum 5): >0, >10, >30, >60, >100
2) Suppression tactical tooltip now shows suppression points from last attacks.
Previously it was always = 0 because ubSuppressionPoints value is cleared after each attack.
3) It is now possible to show suppression values above soldier, just as hit count.
There are new options in ja2_options.ini
Possible values:
0 - do not show
1 - show on moving hit counter
2 - show above soldier
The values are color coded:
Suppression is light gray
Shock is yellow
AP loss is blue
Morale hit is green
SHOW_SUPPRESSION_COUNT = 0
SHOW_SHOCK_COUNT = 0
SHOW_AP_COUNT = 0
SHOW_MORALE_COUNT = 0
This option defines if values are shown as numbers or asterisks (1..5, using scale)
SHOW_SUPPRESSION_USE_ASTERISK = FALSE
This option defines if only 1 asterisk is shown or several (1..5) to represent value
SHOW_SUPPRESSION_SCALE_ASTERISK = TRUE
Show suppression above soldier during enemy attack. All other values are shown after attack, when HandleSuppressionFire function is calculated.
SHOW_SUPPRESSION_COUNT_ALT = TRUE

- Currently MercProfiles.xml contains 5 records for buddies and 5 for foes + 1 per "learn to", but in code only 2 first + "learn to" are handled. I changed it so all possible buddies and foes can be used, and it's possible to add their specific like/dislike quotes to quote .edts.

Gas grenades now don't cause direct damage on hit anymore. They will cause damage on start of turn or if you move inside a gas cloud. Of course gas mask still helps (except for creature gas and fire).
Every tile moved inside a gas cloud deals a percentage of the normal damage (default 10%). This is set in Item_Settings.ini (DAMAGE_HEALTH_MOVE_EXPLOSIVE_MODIFIER, DAMAGE_BREATH_MOVE_EXPLOSIVE_MODIFIER).
Tiles can now have multiple gas effects on them. Unfortunately this is not visualized (yet).
Smoke doesn't make a character immune to other gas types anymore.
The 25% chance of taking damage while moving through a gas cloud has been removed. Damage is now applied 100% of the time.
- New modifiers for explosive damage in Item_Settings.ini (DAMAGE_HEALTH_EXPLOSIVE_MODIFIER, DAMAGE_BREATH_EXPLOSIVE_MODIFIER). These could fully replace EXPLOSIVES_DAMAGE_MODIFIER in Ja2_Options.ini but I left that general modifier untouched for now.
- Some compiler warning fixes.

-SGP debugging now works again (corrected some typos and one missing include).
-Memmory debugging works again (wrong types corrected)
-Laptop screen heigth macro and all references is now usable. (was 'C: y + A' 'D: B - C' which translates to 'D: B - y + A' instead of 'D: B - y - A')
-Laptop screens do not need to rerender as often then before as the laptop screen width/heigth macros works now and invalidating screen will do the trick -> almost no render calls neccessary.
-MercProfile.ubMiscFlag was used instead of .ubMiscFlag2 -> enter sector action schedule for soldiers which dont need to be insertered is now canceled as intended

o See comments from the Music.lua scripts below
--[[
AddMusic(SectorX,SectorY,SectorZ,MusicType,MusicID)
MusicType :
1 - standard music, sector no enemy (NOTHING_xxx.wav or NOTHING_xxx.ogg)
2 - enemy in sector (TENSOR_xxx.wav or TENSOR_xxx.ogg)
3 - start battle (BATTLE_xxx.wav or BATTLE_xxx.ogg)
4 - victory (TRIUMPH_xxx.wav or TRIUMPH_xxx.ogg)
5 - death merc (DEATH_xxx.wav or DEATH_xxx.ogg)
xxx - number file
MusicID - id of music
Put to "Music" folder ogg or wav file. We number the names of files NOTHING_0.wav... NOTHING_10.wav ... etc
Example :
AddMusic(1,10,0,1,0) -- add to sector A10, music type "1" and file NOTHING_0.wav or NOTHING_0.ogg.
AddMusic(1,10,1,1,0) -- add to sector A10_B1, music type "1" and file NOTHING_0.wav or NOTHING_0.ogg.
