- 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

- Selectable at campaign start under "Extra Difficulty" label
- Soft Iron Man: No saving when in turn-based combat. Can save with enemies around (in sector) but only if still in real-time mode.
- Extreme Iron Man: No saving, except punctually at midnight - save screen opens by itself, so Player won't accidentally miss saving time window. Besides Player's save, game will be auto-saved at midnight too if auto-saving is on.
- New ja2_options.ini values for Extreme Iron Man setting: EXTREME_IRON_MAN_SAVING_TIME_NOTIFICATION,

Enhancements (by Buggler)
- Dynamic tactical squad hotkeys only take into account squads present in sector; freed back 11-20 tactical squad hotkeys as 10 dynamic squad hotkeys would be sufficient (thanks to Sevenfm)
- Externalized 'blinded by blast' hardcoded text
git-svn-id: https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/trunk/GameSource/ja2_v1.13/Build@7133 3b4a5df2-a311-0410-b5c6-a8a6f20db521
Updates/Improvements (by Sevenfm)
1. Quick inventory items:
Press [ALT] + [1..0] for quick access to predefined items in tactical (ja2_options.ini: QUICK_ITEM_0 to QUICK_ITEM_9)
Press [ALT] + [`] (tilde key left to [1]) to put item back to inventory and switch hands.
The item will be put in the same slot it was taken from (unless it was stacked or game was reloaded).
2. Also a few quick hotkeys:
[ALT] + [q] - switch to sling (same as [SHIFT] + [k])
[CTRL] + [q] - switch hands
[SHIFT] + [q] - drop item from main hand to the ground
Additional info:
-some hotkeys do not work in cheat mode
-only NIV
-only one-handed items supported
-stacked items currently not supported
-remembered item slot is lost when you reload game
3. A few small fixes for dynamic tooltips and other things
git-svn-id: https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/trunk/GameSource/ja2_v1.13/Build@7130 3b4a5df2-a311-0410-b5c6-a8a6f20db521
Updates/Fixes (by Sevenfm)
1. Added grenade throwing range modifier to item_settings.ini:
RANGE_GRENADE_MODIFIER = 1.0
This modifier is applied to grenades and regular thrown items.
2. Changed 100 to bBreathMax in throwing range penalty calculation. This should make grenades more useful.
3. Minor visual fixes (alt healthbar placement, 'roof' text placement when SHOW_ENEMY_WEAPON is true )
4. Added xml tags for merge type <13>: you can use u.knife on tripwire roll to get 2 tripwires. Status of tripwire roll will be reduced by 2 points.
Also lookup table for merges is updated for xml editor to work correctly.
5. Added several new loadscreenhints.
6. Press 'y' in tactical for quick transformation of item in hand - useful for switching flashlights on and off.

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.
git-svn-id: https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/trunk/GameSource/ja2_v1.13/Build@7072 3b4a5df2-a311-0410-b5c6-a8a6f20db521
- increased background-based chance to steal to 50%, money/gold/solver will be preferred targets
- lowered exp stat gain for handling tripwire
- new background ability: disarm_trap alters effectivity at defusing bombs
- Fix: incorrectly deleted soldiers could still be counted as jamming/scanning
git-svn-id: https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/trunk/GameSource/ja2_v1.13/Build@7058 3b4a5df2-a311-0410-b5c6-a8a6f20db521
- If a merc repairs up to a threshold below 100, display a slightly different message
- Due to radio operator jamming, AI red alert can fail (intentional part of the trait). In that case, forbid the soldier from using radio again this turn, as this would be a fruitless waste of APs.

- Campaign stats take spy actions and SAM sabotages into account
- spy encounters are not reproted if nothing of interest happened
- Fix: error in food system automatic canteen refill
- Fix: if min enemy group size is too high, the AI never replensishes garrisons, thereby severely dumbing down the game.
- Fix: enemy groups do not receive minimum size
- Fix: enemy groups sizes are cut down needlessly

Fixes (by Buggler)
- IMPPrejudice page not showing when reviewing in finish mode
- Added message when minor traits are unselectable due to all IMP available slots taken up by major traits
- Display message when pressing hotkey 'G' to toggle artificial merc light
- refactor hotkey weapon switching and make function available in OIV too
- hold ALT key to swap item instead of opening description box for valid attachment on cursor

Every midnight snitches will give you a report about their collegues' opinions. Information includes:
- merc whining about high death rate,
- merc whining about player reputation,
- merc whining about his low morale,
- merc whining about some other merc (unliked, not only hated),
- merc planning to quit (leave without renewing contract, only AIM mercs) next day,
- merc whining about player inactivity,
- merc whining about player owing them money (you can only owe money to MERC mercs).

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.

- New mine disarm dialogue (only for realtime): Disarm, Inspect, Remove Blue Flag, Blow up.
- You can now attach tripwire-activated explosives to tripwire.
- attached explosives volatility is now used in chain explosion calculation: added new function CalcTotalVolatility.
- new function CheckForBuriedBombsAndRemoveFlags removes MAPELEMENT_XXX_MINE_PRESENT flags if there is no buried bomb at checked tile. This should fix problems with flag not removed correctly after chain explosions and such.
- trip klaxon no longer calls enemies if it's activated as attached explosive (instead it makes some noise).
- added check to MineSpottedDialogueCallBack. It should fix problem with game crash with tiles that have MAPELEMENT_PLAYER_MINE_PRESENT flag set but no buried mine
- disarmed item will keep it's attachments if ALLOW_ATTACHED_EXPLOSIVES is TRUE.
- IMPROVED_BOMB_PLANTING feature can be used to auto-take tripwire items from inventory.

- ridiculous amount of tags: attack, hit, miss, kill, head pop, blinded, type of attack, is target a zombie...
- ripostes to merc quotes,
- taunts can now make noise,
- bumped up amount of taunts to respectable 733, mostly thanks to your contributions guys,
- accidently squashed bug with incorrect noise notifications ("hears scream" instead of "hears explosion" etc.)
Ripostes
At the moment enemies can react to quotes "enemy detected", "1st enemy detected", "multiple enemies detected", "bullet flew by", "under heavy fire", as these are most likely to be used in combat. In the first three cases, riposting enemy will be chosen randomly from all enemy witnesses, latter two - last enemy to attack this merc will taunt.
Enemy's riposte will come as soon as merc quote is finished.
Noisy taunts
Taunts can be handled like other noises in game - shots, explosions, etc., meaning:
- they will be displayed only if someone from our team is close enough to hear them,
- they can be heard even if you don't see enemy (with twist of his name changed to "unknown voice". Yay.)
- volume of taunts is configurable in .ini.

- Weapons.xml tags <bRecoilX> and <bRecoilY> are now FLOAT type values. This allows to differentiate weapons by smaller steps.
- Items.xml tags <RecoilModifierX> and <RecoilModifierY> are now FLOAT types as well.
- Items.xml tag <PercentRecoilModifier> will now be displayed in UDB advanced tab.
- Item_Settings.ini has new modifiers for gun type specific <bRecoilX> and <bRecoilY>. This allows modders to quickly adjust recoil values for any gun type.
- fixed UDB description for <RecoilModifierX> and <RecoilModifierY>
- All recoil calculations now use FLOAT values for more precision.
