Shoot speed

[MacadamiaNuts]

Looking at bots trying to shoot veggies that move in circles, I noticed that the speed of the shoots is not enough  to reach the veggie as their radial (lateral) speed quickly sends them away, even if the bot is leading the shots with a proper angle.

Shouldn't .shootval increase too the firing speed of shoots (or did I miss something)?

.shootval does not impact shot speed currently.  It impacts shot longevity and/or power, but not speed.

I'd love to add this as I think it adds to complexity and opens doors for different behaviours and strategies, but perhaps we need a new sysvar for this as bots may want to spend nrg on shot speed and power/longevity independently.
