Thanks to the TDM team for the mod and all authors for the missions!

This patch adds several small improvements to the main game which in
my opinion make gameplay more realistic and fun, sometimes easier as
well, and it also brings some order to the downloaded missions list!

Due to the open way that mission authors can use existing assets, or
create their own completely, it can happen that sometimes changes of
the patch will not work as stated, like with lights or blackjacking.

To install the patch just extract the archive to the main TDM folder
overwriting files. For naming and feature fixes of specific missions
they need to have been installed before the patch itself is applied!

Permissions of any authors are assumed to be given, as the same name
changes were already made at the online mission archive list and the
list on the web. No mission pk4s or readme files have been modified!

Acknowledgments:
----------------
Many thanks to the whole TDM community for discussions and help, but
especially to friendly modders who directly contributed code for it,
