Space Wind Version 3

[VMSolidus]

Description

I promised I would return to this code when I had gotten down the basics of Calculus, and so I have. This PR reworks Space Wind to be even more efficient, while also making it run significantly smoother. Previously, my last optimization to this system involved replacing the need to take the square root of a large float a few thousand times per tick by adding an early exit, cleverly rearranging the math so that it multiplies a few times instead of square rooting, and changing it to use the throwing system.

That is no longer necessary, it now operates on the Derivative of said function with respect to time. It's no longer necessary to square anything. This new space wind is significantly smoother than before.

I went and had my math in this reviewed by the fantastically talented people from the Mu Alpha Theta honors society. And taking this feedback, have finalized this system into it's most refined form thus far. Any further improvements are going to have to come from updating the underlying systems from atmos as a whole.
