Effectiveness

re-reading the comments, it sounds like you may not understand how I calculate danger, so here is a quick summary:

1) KNN with several classifications schemes. 2) Using the points from step one, save the corresponding angles, a weight for each angle, and a bandwidth for each angle. 3) GoTo wave surfing to find precise intersection range of angles for different movement paths. 4) Use integral of sum of functions from step 2 evaluated over the range of angles from step 3 (with bullet shadows subtracted). 5) Use the safest movement path.

With such an algorithm, I am nearly certain that bandwidth strongly influences how frequently I will change direction due to walls.
