Robert Garrett a161aacaca Crank up the forces to see the boids move!
The Boids algorithm functions need a lot of work, but the cohesion and
separation functions appear to nominally perform their stated goal.

Both are constant forces across their whole range, so there is a jerking
motion as things cross in and out of the activation boundaries.

I think the alignment function breaks the laws of thermodynamics, as
well. Oh well, that's what the spacebrakes system is for.
