Determine whether or not get_initial_minimum_distance() is still necessary #53

It is possible that, at this point, with collision avoidance fairly thoroughly implemented, we can make do without any attempts to gain initial minimum distance. This could boost scoring capability by a significant factor.

I'm starting to think that enabling or disabling this isn't having any effect at all. I don't think that glo.Const.FEATURES['initial_scoot'] is implemented correctly in all of the areas that are necessary, or else it may be simply ignoring the glo.Const.Initial_Scoot_Distance, possibly.

More analysis is definitely necessary.
