Free hostage quests

When Ben Dabi attack an enemy, they might surrender if they are outnumbered. In this case the survivors will be taken hostage by the enemy militia and this creates a hostage quest.

The hostage's friend will offer a reward in exchange for breaking them out of prison.

When your squad attack the village they can identify the prison where the hostage is held by the bared windows and locked metal doors. 

Once the enemy militia detect your presence they will sound an alarm and will try to kill the hostages, so your team should try to get close to the prison as possible before they reveal themselves. 

You can break the hostage out by blowing the door with a grenade. 

You should try to protect the hostages as they try to escape - engage the  enemy, so they can't kill the hostage as he flees.

Once the coast is clear the hostages will leave the scene.

When the battle is over, you can go back to the hostages friend and claim the reward.

Also, in this release many bugs have been fixed:

• used static area to control locked rooms and regenerate when door explodes
• take cover only takes effect if there are known enemy 
• pick up task only cools off if picked up
• fixed bug where AI handle doors badly during move calculation
• if AI soldier is trapped behind door, he can now close the door to free himself 

Notes:

Game saves are not compatible with previous version.

There is a issue with the MacOS version due to issues in the GLFW library.  In full screen mode the screen may will be chopped off by a small amount. Also, performance may be poor - in this case you should de-select "highres shadows" in settings as a temporary workaround.
