Hi guys! I'm thrilled this project is still alive and kicking! 
As you see by my registering date, I'm not really new to JA2 1.13, but the last version I played was build 8915, many years ago.
So I downloaded the poetically named stable (?) version "JA2_113-v5-Gdff4La10d-English" and have a couple basic questions:
- OMG is it big! 2.55GB, with about 3 times more files than JA2 + build 8915. How comes?
- I assume there are lots of new features added since then, so is there some place I can get a quick overview of how it now works? Build 8915 was already getting complicated (surgical equipment, trap/fortification building, food), so I'm afraid the newest version will not be playable without some reading...
- I see lots of mentions of a version 7435 in the forum, yet I downloaded years ago a version 8915. Is there a rational explanation?
Thanks in advance!

It's somewhat unfortunate that .sti files compression isn't that good so we'll probably need to cut some graphics off at some point to make it more manageable again.
