INI Differences with Stock v1.13
(Things that you really should not change, additional warnings below.)
Ja2_Options.INI
MAX_NUMBER_PLAYER_VEHICLES = 3
- Do Not Change - map and RPC changes require this for "New Maps" option

MAX_NUMBER_CREATURES_IN_TACTICAL = 40
MAX_NUMBER_MILITIA_IN_TACTICAL = 64
MAX_NUMBER_CIVS_IN_TACTICAL = 40
- Due to nature of story, these have been maxed out so maps fill out better. Suspect that original Urban Chaos was able to exceed current v1.13 limits either via pre-source code modifications, or the old .exe simply didn't have limits. If/when v1.13 limits increase, these should be increased as well.
MAX_ITEM_SIZE = 240
MAX_WEAPON_SIZE = 50
OLD_INVENTORY_ITEM_NUMBER = 999
- Do Not Change - core item mod requires this
USE_DIFFICULTY_BASED_PROF_DAT = FALSE
- Do Not Change - not only will this disable all new characters, but these files have not been updated in years

NUM_P_ITEMS = 6
- Do Not Change - core item mod requires this
MERC_WEBSITE_IMMEDIATELY_AVAILABLE = TRUE

- Balance choice by the modder
AUTO_SAVE_EVERY_N_HOURS = 0
- Possibly no longer true, but found game more stable without auto saves
USE_EXTERNALIZED_LOADSCREENS = FALSE
- Do Not Change - some maps would cause game to crash
- Possibly no longer required, but the feature has no impact on gameplay
SHOW_CAMOUFLAGE_FACES = FALSE
- Do Not Change - all mod (original Urban Chaos) specific RPC's lack necessary graphics

- Balance choice by the modder
ALLOW_WEAR_SUPPRESSOR = FALSE

LEVEL_SUBPOINTS_TO_IMPROVE = 500

- recent upgrades to Sci-fi mode in v1.13 may lead to situation where Crepitus specific maps will interfere with original Urban Chaos maps and/or be inaccessible
NO_ENEMY_DETECTION_WITHOUT_RECON = FALSE
- Balance choice by the modder
FACILITY_EVENT_RARITY = 10000
