- Some APs fixing for throwing knives and backpack, with doing some correction to my previous changes.
Details:
- Do some correction and missing parts to ch58 and ch69.
- Throwing knives will add you bonus for throwing knives to same target as was suppose from v1.12 but never works.
- Fix AI use gun calculation for throwing knives instead for throw.
- Fix incorrect showing and deducting APs when try to shoot from prone with backpack or throw from prone and crouch positions with turning in general.
- Fix cheating when sLastTarget is set just for raise gun in that direction, this was always done after you fire.

- Add alternative fix for CalcBestShot which should remove existing APs problems maybe even create AI deadlier then ever ;-)
Details:
- Existing CalcBestShot simply became inadequate and buggier for so many add ons to game, so compiling with dnlCALCBESTSHOT is alternative option which calculate all turning, stance and raising gun cost for different stances and all available scopes, and after all hoping fix incorrect APs calculation as well, hitrate formula is adapt to 100AP system, also try to optimize a bit to get less AICalcChanceToHitGun calls and to use with different stance decisions.
- From ch58 aiming for burst and autofire was disabled as was causing invalid action handle due to incorrect APs calculation so from now aiming AI also use aiming before bursting.

The description of this modifier says that "Higher is better."
Before this fix a higher value actually made target tracking worse. Now it should work like it was supposed to be.

- Magically appeared reinforcements for enemy and militia just turn after they are called from now could be delayed and randomized.
Details:
- Practically all enemy reinforcement which can populate available slots was always appeared next turn after they are called so now we have game settings under "Strategic Gameplay Settings" for fine tunning enemy and militia reinforce entry:
MIN_DELAY_ENEMY_REINFORCEMENTS enemy reinforcement will arrive minimum this number of turns after they are called, if 0 then is disabled.
RND_DELAY_ENEMY_REINFORCEMENTS additional random delay added to minimum when reinforcements will arrive after they are called.
MIN_ENTER_ENEMY_REINFORCEMENTS minimum enemy units which will enter after above delay is over.
RND_ENTER_ENEMY_REINFORCEMENTS additional random enemy units to appear after passing delay.
MIN_DELAY_MILITIA_REINFORCEMENTS enemy reinforcement will arrive minimum this number of turns after they are called, if 0 then is disabled.
RND_DELAY_MILITIA_REINFORCEMENTS additional random delay added to minimum when reinforcements will arrive after they are called.
MIN_ENTER_MILITIA_REINFORCEMENTS minimum enemy units which will enter after above delay is over.
RND_ENTER_MILITIA_REINFORCEMENTS additional random enemy units to appear after passing delay.
- After first delay ends any other reinforcement appeared more frequently or if already arrive (but no free slot), they will pop up soon after slot is free.
- Add option NO_REMOVE_RANDOM_SECTOR_ITEMS under "Strategic Gameplay Settings" to prevent permanent random removal of your sector items.
- Add missing function DisplaySectorItemsInfo.

Before it was not possible to aim in realtime mode because the UI didn't support it. It still doesn't support it but from now on the game will assume that we used the maximum number of aim clicks. Turn based combat is not affected by this.

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

- Throwing knives had tendency to magically disappear if hit some kind structure.
Details:
- For those who like Dimitri, throwing knives will not disappear anymore if hit some structure or flies into the sky, also using them affect their condition.

- Fix problems with left click on NAS pocket with weapon and attachment in hand also do some patch to JA2SP_INVENTORY_AP inventory manipulation.
Details:
- If have valid attachment for weapon in some NAS pocket and try left click on it weapon will be transfered to HANDPOS, this is fix and attachment box will pop up instead.
- Fix problem with inventory manipulation on when they deduct APs from even on unsuccessful item movement.
- From now during turn based combat you can only attach and reload weapon in your HANDPOS and item handling is forbidden in strategic map as code for APs deduction for item movement is only implemented in tactical screen. So this restrictions apply only during turn based combat and with JA2SP_INVENTORY_AP is turned on.

When swapping merc faces in tactical the game will now rebuild the mercs squad.
Changed NCTH behaviour for lasers:
When USE_NEW_CTH_CALCULATION = TRUE in Ja2_Options.ini the game now uses the item property <BestLaserRange> now for a laser specific bonus instead of <ProjectionFactor>. This bonus is a percentage reduction of the base aperture in NCTH. This functionality will only be used if one of the following new parameters in CTHConstants.ini is NOT 0.
LASER_PERFORMANCE_BONUS_HIP
LASER_PERFORMANCE_BONUS_IRON
LASER_PERFORMANCE_BONUS_SCOPE
This functionality also affects the laser property that is displayed in UDB.
Changed NCTH behaviour for Iron Sights and other 1x sights:
Iron sights and other 1x sights can now receive a bonus in NCTH to make them more useful compared to scopes. This bonus is a percentage reduction of the base aperture just like lasers can do.
There is a new parameter in CTHConstants.ini for this:
IRON_SIGHT_PERFORMANCE_BONUS

- Vertical angle formula fix and accidental hits in OCTH.
Details:
- No more accidental hits at target for which OCTH calculate miss, this was especially inflicted to prone targets, cause was vertical angles and ridiculous definition in JSD stance files.
- Rollback to original v1.12 Distance2D calculation, because game use tan not cos function for vertical angle. Bad vertical angles in close distance 3 tiles or less (as Distance3D calculate 8 tiles), means that you will always hit target regardless of OCTH result.
- Also fix distance formula which had wrong factor 2.56 instead of 25.6, at close distance that was problem because height for one level is defined by 256 units per one tile which had value of 10.
- Add little adjustment to vertical bullet angles so bullets spread more in visual ranges.
- Bug fix when dice roll is equal to OCTH which means miss but currently was always treated as hit even when OCTH is pure 0.

- swapping items in tactical could lead to a situation where we don't have enough AP to put the item on the hand cursor anywhere. Now it is allowed to place the item in your inventory. The merc will have negative AP afterwards.
- removing an attachment and closing the UDB could lead to a situation where you don't have enough AP to attach the item on your hand cursor again when you notice that you don't have a slot available in inventory and not enough AP to simply drop the item. Attaching the attachment again is now possible. The merc will have negative AP afterwards.

- Fix not enough APs for unloaded ammo and removed attachment in map screen, however this will not solve problem if inventory manipulation is on.
Details:
- During the battle if you enter in strategic screen and remove attachment or unload clip and have no free slots to put them, you was stuck and need to reload game (other option was trash).
Now game check if you have enough APs for reload and attach back item.
- This fix solve same problem with clips in tactical screen too.

- (bug) first Tooltip for weapons (secondary and tertiary values like recoil) was missing, last one showed (null,null).
- (cleanup) code cosmetic/potential bug: cnt now (hopefully) match the count of actual rendered values/MouseRegions and Icons.
- (feature adjustment) freshness Bar for food now shows the decay. Color values for bar range from green (over yellow) to red. hight of bar shows the percentage.
- (feature adjustment) Food properties are now shown in DB. A Data patch is needed to show the new Icons, those however are placeholders for better ones, the tooltips also need a rework by a native english and translation to the different languages.
- (feature adjustment) When FoodSystem is enabled the weight of a foodtype item is adjusted to account for partially eaten item.
- (bug) Performance fix 1: multiple TransformIcons where rendered in DB above each other.
- (bug) Performance fix 2: condition to leave loop when on end of Transform list was not met due to missing cast (65535!=-1).
- (bug) 'endless dying mercs in roof edges' fix in rev.6346 condition was never met.
- (bug) Popups were missplaced when clicking on a trainer-assignment multiple times to close the submenu.
- (bug) Popups were missplaced when clicking on a practice-assignment multiple times to close the submenu.
- (bug) Popups were missplaced when clicking on a student-assignment multiple times to close the submenu.
- (bug) Popups were missplaced when clicking on a facility-assignment multiple times to close the submenu. note: the bug might only be reproducable when selecting different screensize then the 3 native ones.
- (bug) MouseMasks for disabling timeCompress buttons did not match size of buttons, Clock Overlay was missing
- (cleanup) Replaced Hardcoded fallback Gridnumbers with CenterGrid if no exitGrid was specified in map editor. Same behavier than before, but since we have bigmaps and possibly other mapsizes it should not be constant.
- (bug) Sight range calulation uses distance visible with and without scope to get a scopeRangeMod=sDistVis/sDistVisNoScope. Blind soldiers will have 0 sDistVisNoScope, which means the scopeRangeMod is a div/0 (not defined result). After fix we get a defined result for scopeRangeMod of 1.0f in case there is a 0 distance. Also we get a defined result for sightrange since sightrange=sightrange/scopeRangeMod = 0/1.0f.
- (bug) Experimental NCTH calulation did return 0 CTH with 0 aimclicks but it should return at least the base CTH.
- (cleanup) added comment to get an idea of the 'magic' aiming Points formula
- (feature adjustment) Flat backpack malus replaced with malus which scales linear with weight of backpack up to maximum specified in ini file. Each 5 kg 1 additional malus is applied for movement. When carrying pack in hands or inside another pocket the full malus is applied. Malus for changing stances is still 1 additional Point when carrying backpack (does not matter in which slot).

- changed skill handling for disarming bomb traps to rely more on explosives than mechanical in new skill system(old ratio 5:2, new 6:1). Mercs were blowing themselves up to often even when disarming own bombs (big bonus).
In the old skill system this ratio is 7:0.

- 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.

Before Patch:
Render region for the Game Time and Tooltip region for this region had different x/y coordinate formulas which resulted in missplaced ToolTip on screen resolutions higher then 3.
There where 4 different definitions of Clock position: INTERFACE_CLOCK_X, INTERFACE_CLOCK_TM_X, CLOCK_X, CLOCK_REGION_START_X. Also there where 2 different definitions of the region: CLOCK_STRING_WIDTH, CLOCK_REGION_WIDTH.
Pause Box had a fixed position on screen regardless of resolution mode or screen size.
Two different kinds of defines for the Font where used: CLOCKFONT and CLOCK_FONT
After Patch:
Only 2 different coords are existant for rendering the clock, of which 1 is currently redundant as it is off screen for NIV. The later can be used once the Teampanel in tactical screen can handle the clock while showing the inventory (currently the clock is not rendered when NIV is used), this however requires new graphics for 6/8/10 squatsizes. Once a new location for this case is determined simply update the RenderTEAMPanel(BOOLEAN) accordingly with new if clause for NIV (Offset of LOCATION_NAME_TM_X can be used, or what everis convinient).
Also 2 boundary boxes of the region are present, one for the actual area 66*14 (CLOCK_AREA_WIDTH) and one for a little gap of currently 1 pixel for the mouse region (CLOCK_REGION_OFFSET_X) the later one is kindof not neccessary since the String gets now centered in the Area. But maybe someone will make a mod with small render area but large mouseregion for the clock, who knows :)
Pause Box is now rendered in the center of the screen as intended.
Only one font for the clock! There was no need for a different define, also the CLOCKFONT.sti is not in GameFolder so I changed that and use the COMP font.
All globals are now located in Game Clock.cpp but still get initialized in Interface Panels.cpp since the init function in Game Clock.cpp is called too early and no globals for screen size and resolution are known at this point.

- 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.

- Fix several problems which lead into bad or no AI decisions, add optional decision of short autofire.
Details:
- Avoid use of last two locations per turn
- Fix problems with improper APs calculations for burst and autofire which lead into AI to forcably cancel and end turn for those actions.
- Add option for decide to use short autofire instead of one long to enchance chance to hit.
- After taking cover change facing toward closest enemy to avoid going in status red and rather take proper black decisions.
- Fix bad public noise processing after AI investigate closest disturbance and find nothing, also erase all same noise points in team members if one of them already investigated.
