Obstacle avoidance: Get out of obstacle routine #227

Open SyrianSpock opened 5 years ago

SyrianSpock commented 5 years ago

When set properly, our obstacle avoidance works wonders. The main bottleneck now is encountered when our robot think it's inside an obstacle (usually opponent or ally) and stops moving. We need a routine that safely get us out of the way and then leave the path planning take over again.

Idea: turn inplace until facing the measured center of the obstacle, then move in radially opposite direction.

Relates to #186
