Difference (from prior major revision) (no other diffs)

Changed: 7c7

It uses DuelistMiniMelee's movement for melee movement and an entirely new 1-v-1 movement algorithm. 1-v-1 movement is now designed to produce foil enemy virtual bullet systems by mixing forward/backward/reverse in such a way that it spends approximately the same amount of time on all enemy virtual bullet paths (assuming the enemy uses angular targeting). In other words, it is designed to actively balance its movement so that any gun angle the enemy decides to fire using will have about the same chance of hitting as any other angle.

Although many bots do this pretty well in the center of the field, Warmonger does a much better job of it when it is in a corner or against a wall than other bots.
