// 08/04/02       .02               created alpha particles and displaycode reader 
//                                     (somebody make me an editor for it already)
// 08/05/02       .05               created first ship, implemented parts of OT
// 08/06/02       .06               fixed drawing so ships faces correct degree
//                                     fixed small errors in OT, fixed acceleration
//                                     function, made ship have height, added some
//                                     new variables to OT, fixed thrusters, added
//                                     (partly) the team color circle (this will 
//                                     allow for easier detection of enemy units and
//                                     friendly units)
// 08/07/02       .1                added dynamic keys, added/modeled joe and the 
//                                     rocket
// 08/08/02       .11               added more team colors, started weapons system
//                                     jotted down many ideas for weapons
// 08/09/02       .12               debugged weapon system, started implementing
//                                     firing
// 08/12/02       .16               Weapon system works (mostly) need to add in
//                                     support for more weapons, spawn object works,
//                                     added enabling/disabling of controls which
//                                     will be useful for EMP mines
// 08/13/02       .2                Weapon system works, 2 weapons supported now,
//                                     modeled 2 new weapons today, better star
//                                     colors
// 08/16/02       .21               modeled fox
// 08/26/02       .25               Speed improvements to object drawings by
//                                     eliminating unneccessary drawings, vibration
//                                     minimized, elliptical team circles
// 08/27/02       .3                added text abilities, basic HUD in place
// 08/29/02       .31               sped up explosion generation by not using an
//                                     indefinite postponement algorithm (generate a
//                                     a particle and test if it is in a circle =
//                                     bad), radar tracks weapons (has trouble with
//                                     rockets)
// 08/30/02       .32               fixed the explosions so they don't "bowtie"
//                                     anymore, fixed radar tracking of weapons
// 09/04/02       .33               Mike helped me make explosions a O(N) formula
//                                     versus a O(N^2) formula, thus you don't need
//                                     uber comp for bigger explosions.
// 09/05/02       .34               added team flags
// 09/06/02       .35               designed min (the O=O ship)...well that was the
//                                     original design back on the TI-83, it's been
//                                     modernized
// 09/08/02       .36               added burning shapnel to the explosions,
//                                     modified some stuff to allow for multiple
//                                     screens
// 09/17/02       .40               hud now includes weapon inventory, color coded

// 09/18/02       .42               hud now includes health and energy bar, both
//                                     have cool little 3 level gradient things
// 09/21/02       .45               added a little fps counter then went out and
//                                     tested it on several computers (72fps is much
//                                     too fast, so I limited play to 60fps which is
//                                     still fast in comparison to what I normally
//                                     get on my machine), made a simple planet for
//                                     testing purposes, added planets to radar
//                                     detection though it is slightly buggy
// 09/22/02       .46               joe is now completely decked out with weapons;

// 10/06/02       .50               added in AIScript which allows for me to program
//                                     in AIs, implmented -[OT FacePoint::] (used
//                                     for turning objects toward their destination

//                                     AI slightly easier to write and much easier
//                                     to understand
// 10/21/02       .66       5689    fixed many careless bugs, fixed a few bus

//                                     speed(looped 281625 old way(max), now it loops
//                                     much less
// 10/30/02       .70       6433    AI improvements, speed improvements to particle engine
