** Increase depth of 'precise prediction' (very different meaning than surfing) in the score prediction code, to be somewhat greater than version 1k (versions after 1k had it reduced a fair bit). Some tests indicate that this should fix the score loss since version 1k finally.

** Sparsely allocate gun buffers as needed, instead of allocating all '''164250''' VCS buffers (each having 45 bins of <code>double</code> type) at once...
 +
*** Let's see... 164250*45*8 = 59130000 bytes = 56MB + Java's overhead per array... Ouch :P
 +
*** This '''greatly''' reduces memory usage, to 1/10th of prior usage, since in a typical battle only about 10% of those VCS buffers actually get written to anyway ;)
