Add ability for projectiles to retarget after losing a lock (WIP) #2

Closed tehhowch closed 7 years ago

tehhowch commented 7 years ago

WIP to develop retargeting missiles.

Comments / feedback / suggestions welcome. Test mission will be posted when I have 1) a version of this that doesn't segfault 2) a test mission to post

Definitely up for discussion: 1) lock lifetime 2) target selection 3) pretty much everything

As of b4cc066 this branch appeared to drastically increase the cpu time per frame when in missile-heavy regions (Wah Ki, in particular). This was not re-evaluated after c6740de, and was not evaluated in any other system.

The CPU increase may have been from using a debugging binary instead of a release binary.
