About the sector item drops. I have noticed, in sector south of Drassen Mine, that the items found upon team entering the sector were the same ones that I have found there at the end of the previous fight. Items that I have, I might add, since sold/used up. It looks like the sector inventory was saved on the end of the fight and then reproduced upon team rentering the area some 10 hours later.

Regarding the tropical SAM. It boils down to the issue that enemy doesn't swim, apparently. One or two sildiers get spawned in the shallows in NW section of the map, but there is small stretch of deeper water separating that and the shore.I have previously played 4870 version and mods for it and enemy always swim, though, if you position your mercs right, they are easy target in the waters. It almost looks like someone took care to avoid such behavior, modifying the AI in order to stop soldiers from passing through deeper water. I will have oportunity to test this soon.

may-be-bug: with r357, the game usually crashes when enemy invades sector my soldiers are in. everything is ok if i play from the same pre-attack save with r325.

strategic problem: Cambria confederados after eliminating Hicks. if i do not touch them, my reputation drops: "citizens do not like what X is doing." if i'm on tactical map, somebody starts shooting and i can kill him, but it costs considerable amount of health to one of my soldiers. and then it happens next time, and the next... to avoid it, i kill all confederados in Cambria after the first incident. so my reputation drops in all Arulco and to 0 in Cambria.

just curious: iirc originally militia was not moving freely between Cambria mine and central SAM when one of those sectors was attacked.

Global food decay rate can be set in Ja2_Options.ini with FOOD_DECAY_MODIFICATOR. For specific food items, this is set in Food.xml with <usDecayRate>.

some items have blue aura around them on b.r shop or on ground in tactical map ja2 av 1.08

Thanks! Some of those bugs have been fixed in v1.08. The civilian factions who don't have speaking lines ("Quote x") will get something to say, someday soon. I'll take a long look at folding stocks and SMGs. I've tinkered heavily in the latest releases on weapon parameters, making combat a bit quicker and deadlier, but I hadn't touched the folding stock parameters.

I can't control food decay, unfortunately.

The Santos Bros do sell food -- there was a bug with the merchants that was fixed.

The version I installed was 1.08, so the bugs seem to be still present in this version.

on 1.08 and when trying to read the description for tear gas grenades(I don't remember which exactly) I experience a crash.

Hey Ed, I'm wondering: is there a second alarm switch in H13 Alma that troops can get to from the outside?

I tried, but it's not the switch in the security guard's house (what does that one do exactly?)

The scenario I described was defending the sector against 50+ troops, I actually had a Merc standing in front of the switch but there was still an explosion - possibly a bug since it didn't happen at a later retry.

// if there are panic bombs here
if (gTacticalStatus.fPanicFlags & PANIC_BOMBS_HERE)
{
	// if enemy is holding a portable panic bomb detonator, he tries to use it
	bSlot = FindTrigger( pSoldier );
	if (bSlot != NO_SLOT)
	{
		//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
		// ACTIVATE DETONATOR: blow up sector's panic bombs
		//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
			// if we have enough APs to activate it now
		if (pSoldier->bActionPoints >= APBPConstants[AP_USE_REMOTE])
		{
			// blow up all the PANIC bombs!
			return(AI_ACTION_USE_DETONATOR);
		}
		else	 // otherwise, wait a turn
		{
			pSoldier->aiData.usActionData = NOWHERE;
			return(AI_ACTION_NONE);
		}
	}
}

New query: Similarly to Tixa last autumn , attacking Balime sees Lora and Armand Ricci become enemies to both Deidrannas elite soldiers and my team. So - no "friendly" convincing Armand to open the safe - he dies in every scenario. Any chance you can look into that?
