Add in really quick and dirty random movement

Regarding the todo item "Add in really quick and dirty random movement"

It helped me a lot to use a random movement from an open source micro bot when I was developing targeting.

For de Broglie, I chose to use the movement from Aristocles, which had two nice benefits for testing.

  • Aristocles has a nice micro implementation of GF targeting. If you climb above Aristocles in the Rumble, you can know that your gun is coming along quite nicely because your movement is identical.
  • Do a comparison of rumble stats between your bot and Aristocles to see if your gun has any striking strengths/weaknesses against certain bots.

Using that code was a nice stepping stone while I was working on targeting. I could forget about movement issues while still having a fully functioning bot as a test bed.

Good luck!
