TLDR : Answer Summary
Changing your re-entry date from October 12 to October 13 should not be a problem as long as you enter Thailand before the expiration date of your re-entry permit. It is important to ensure that your entry is stamped in before the permit's expiration date.

your re-entry stamp has a "valid till date" and that is the 3 days before your entry stamp expies! Do not undestand why u ask!

read all of your stamps for dates and do not let anything expire, will be very costly in canceled visas and refused re-entry!

Not an issue. As long as you enter before the current date you’re stamped in to you’ll be fine.

yes your “allowed to stay” until stamp. The re-entry permit is valid until then.
