Shrinking OculusMicro

First ideas:

You can use a simpler calculation for MEA.

Try compiling with JDK1.4, an old version of Robocode, and Jikes.

I've also used ProGuard to shrink Yatagan - it was a bit tricky to add the right stuff to the classpath and keep the right components 'open', but once it was set up it was easy.

(edit: more details) With the MEA trick and some try catches I got it down to 769. I also wrote the surfing algorithm with a for loop. Removed absoIuteBearing method since it was used only once. I feel like a professional. =)

Have a look at RaikoMicro, which is full of tricks.

e.g., for waves, no ArrayList, use addCustomEvents instead.
