o A define ENABLE_ENCYCLOPEDIA defines, if the encyclopedia code should be compiled
o What is happening here is encyclopedia has a lot of really big structures (ENCYCLOPEDIA_LOCATION) and then a lot of arrays of size NUM_SECTOR, NUM_PROFILES, NUMITEMS which are fairly sizable themselves.
o What the problem with doing this is when you need to allocate memory it typically needs to go to virtual memory to get large blocks of memory (malloc and related routines all do this) but you only have 2GB worth of virtual space as a pointer is 32 bits and user mode gets half of that 00000000-7FFFFFFF for addressing. This statically allocated space is taking up 7/8ths of the virtual address space. When animations or maps need to be loaded there might not be enough virtual space left due to fragmentation.
o To see the amount of committed memory, open TaskManager and add the "Committed Memory" column to the view

Finally fixed CalcMaxTossRange so that it pulls the correct grenade launcher item instead of just the first one, thereby allowing more than one range value per set of launcher items that launch the same grenades.

- Display bombs/mines/tripwires planted by your team
Red is for bomb/mine, yellow is for tripwire and orange is for both at the same tile.
o ALT + END: only display as long as the hotkey is pressed
o ALT + SHIFT + V: toggle permanent display on/off
- Display ALL (also enemy) planted BOMBS / MINES / TRIPWIRE when the selected merc has a metal detector in his hand
o ALT + DEL only display as long as the hotkey is pressed
o ALT + Shift + C toggle permanent display on/off

o This attachment fits most ARs, Rifles and SMGs. When attached, moving the gun from the main hand to the rifle sling slot does not cost APs when 'Inventory Manipulation costs AP' is turned on.
o When a merc would drop his gun because of damage taken, it is instead moved to the rifle sling slot if possible.
o A gun in the main hand or rifle sling slot cannot be stolen when a rifle sling is attached.
- Tripwire Feature Update (by Flugente)
o proper pictures for tripwire (by smeagol)
o Tripwire no longer activates diagonally.
o When multiple bombs/tripwires are on a tile, only those activatable by tripwire get removed upon deflagged.
- Scope Mode Feature Update (by Flugente)
o Fixed a bug that would crash the game when displaying guns in inventory
git-svn-id: https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/trunk/GameSource/ja2_v1.13/Build@5207 3b4a5df2-a311-0410-b5c6-a8a6f20db521
o Disabled the usage, because it seems to cause some problems when loading the maps (reported by Smeagol)
o Now it is possible again to choose if we want the XML tileset structure or the binary one (ja2.ini -> USE_XML_TILESETS)
o If we later need the additional P4-P9 items we can enable it again and have to check carefully what causes the problems
git-svn-id: https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/trunk/GameSource/ja2_v1.13/Build@5205 3b4a5df2-a311-0410-b5c6-a8a6f20db521
o This allows you to toggle between a gun's different scopes via the '.' key. Y
o You get the boni for vison, tunnel vison, sight range, scope magnification etc. only for the scope you use.
o 2 new ja2_options.ini properties: USE_SCOPE_MODES, DISPLAY_SCOPE_MODES: Allows the display of an icon on your gun, to tell what scope is currently in use. If it is a scope, the magnification factor also gets written. Both options can be found under the [Tactical Gameplay Settings] section in the ja2_options.ini
o new tag in items.xml (<attachmentclass>) now enables to specifiy what an attachment can do. At the moment used by grenades/rockets/scopes/sights. Items.xml changed accordingly, modders need to add this tag for those items.
o More infos: First post in: http://www.ja-galaxy-forum.com/board/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=303038&#Post303038
- WARNING: This feature breaks savegame compatibility.
- New Feature: Tripwire-triggered mines (by Flugente)
o This allows creating complex networks of tripwire that can detonate multiple mines attached to them.
o 2 new Items.xml tags: tripwireactivation, tripwire
o More infos: http://www.ja-galaxy-forum.com/board/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=303205&#Post303205
- Overheating addition (by Flugente)
o Severe overheating now temporarily reduces a gun's accuracy. This exact amount is displayed in the UDB.
- Bugfix (by Flugente)
o Removed foregrip as an attachment from the Saiga 12K

o Corretly positioned the strategy sector inventory and the zooming animation in all supported resolutions
o Reworked tooltip text (line-breaks) for the new sector inventory buttons
git-svn-id: https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/trunk/GameSource/ja2_v1.13/Build@5189 3b4a5df2-a311-0410-b5c6-a8a6f20db521
o Fixed a few positions for the sector inventory in widescreen resolution
o TODO: The file "Map Screen Interface Map Inventory.cpp" needs to be adjusted (The "xResOffset" needs to be added to the x-positions of the images) for widescreen resolutions
git-svn-id: https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/trunk/GameSource/ja2_v1.13/Build@5187 3b4a5df2-a311-0410-b5c6-a8a6f20db521
Notes:
-There may still be bugs!! (In fact, I almost guarantee it -- there's
-Ammo box code added to HR's crate code
-Splitting a crate/box also automatically refills half empty magazines
-new pathing arrows for map screen not included
-code for scouts to know where enemies are going doesn't appear to work... but i'm not sure it was completed.
-lots of gobledy gook (chinese?) comments turned back to english
-also added Bob's popups
-other languages besides english still need to have there language.cpp files updated with array changes
-AI enhancements by Warmsteel (reloading, suppression, roaming, avoiding gas, and other fixes)

2. Fixed potential infinite loop bug if no ammo crate or box is present and (ctrl+)shift+a is pressed.
3. Changed Ctrl click on mapscreen from Delete to auto-place item in selected merc or vehicle inventory.

o The problem was, that the file "MercQuote.xml" was never initialized. Now it should read from the file, but only if READ_PROFILE_DATA_FROM_XML = TRUE, otherwise it reads the values from prof*.dat

o The command line option hidden in the exception patch would be used like the following:
o This overrides the vfs config to use the aimnas config. (useful for desktop shortcuts)
JA2_EN_Release.exe /VFS_CONFIG_INI=vfs_config.JA2113AIMNAS.ini
o This overrides vfs file and disables the highspeed timer:
JA2_EN_Release.exe /VFS_CONFIG_INI=vfs_config.JA2113AIMNAS.ini /HIGHSPEED_TIMER=FALSE
git-svn-id: https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/trunk/GameSource/ja2_v1.13/Build@5142 3b4a5df2-a311-0410-b5c6-a8a6f20db521
o Fix the crash exception handler to work with VFS
o Add version numbers of loaded dlls to crash dump file
o Add call stack with source line numbers if PDB is present to crash dump file
o Add ability to specify addition JA2.INI settings from command line
git-svn-id: https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/trunk/GameSource/ja2_v1.13/Build@5141 3b4a5df2-a311-0410-b5c6-a8a6f20db521
o Expand length of gMoneyStatsDesc buffer for Italian and Dutch builds
o Move EnumToString to text utils from keymap
o Add ParseCommandLine utility function for parsing command line strings

o Take a look in the comment header for the "Language Defines.h" file for further informations
o Enable PDF for Release builds, so crash dump is more effective (of course if we release a version we also have to release the PDB file)
git-svn-id: https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/trunk/GameSource/ja2_v1.13/Build@5136 3b4a5df2-a311-0410-b5c6-a8a6f20db521
o You can now attach weapons to other weapons (only one at a time). Comes with additional fire modes (by cycling in tactical with key 'b')
o A new item, the KAC masterkey, demonstrates this. Raider and Kelly have one in their starting kit 4. (pics by smeagol)
o works both in OCTh and NCTH. Aiming is done via the main gun, but all physical values of the attached gun are considered.
o reload an underbarrel gun while it is attached by dropping the ammo on the main gun while an underbarrel fire mode is active. Cycle firemodes in tactical by pressing 'b'
o Attachments to underbarrel weapons are inseparable while weapon is attached, but they do work.
- Overheating weapons additions (by Flugente)
o New option OVERHEATING_DISPLAY_THERMOMETER_RED_OFFSET controls how red the temperature bar is at the beginning.
o New option OVERHEATING_SET_ZERO_UPON_NEW_SECTOR sets temperature of items on the floor to zero if loading a new sector
