// When escorting a ship, we want to follow the ship by about three
// squares.  We do this by moving towards the ship, but keeping track
// of our distance from it.  Since the ship that we are escorting is
// moving, we need to constantly revise are target location.
//
// This implementation could be a little slow if you are escorting a
// ship that is far away.
