- Reorganized hotkeys code in alphabetical order for easy reference
- Moved item transformation hotkey from 'Y' to 'Shift + T' due to hotkey being used to call up chatbox in networked game

- 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.

- 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

- 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,

- 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.

- 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

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

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.

- More map editor fixes and map inventory pool performance improvement for big maps.
Details:
- Fix not showing expected messagebox on exit (ALT+x) which also throw exception and goes to improper mapeditor exit.
- Fix second annoying sticky message which shouldn't popup during map loading and performing RemoveProhibitedAttachments.
- Fix CTD when delete all enemies or civilians or all of them in map.
- Fix some std exception when reporting for missing optional xml file.
- Fix memory and map corruption in old mapeditors if loaded old map has item with invalid attachment and we try to attach something else.
- As years ago pInventoryPoolList had migrated from WORLDITEM* array to std::vector<WORLDITEM> it was time to do that with gWorldItems too, all necessary functions which need to be adopted to gWorldItems std::vector type are also changed.
- Resize code for gWorldItems is changed hoping will lead into less corruption problems as now could occur in mapeditor and game when code automatically doing attachment changes.
- Change code for handling map inventory which now should be fast enough to support AIMNAS project which will probably deal with thousands of items per map.

- no more jump with backpack (keys 'j' and 'J'). This is more consistent. Sometimes the soldier got stuck in the fence as some functions did not allow jumping and others did.
- Pickup items from ground will now cost AP.
- Backpack, Scubba fins and swimming background AP modificattion is now shown in path and is considered when calculating new path. No pathing through fences when wearing backpack. More likely to create path through water when wearing scubba fins.

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.

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
