InterceptAI

A three-state machine, designed for interception and combat, will exit afterwards. Used mainly by policevipers (hence the reference to lights), but also by other attacking AI-scripts, such as the escortAI.

Used states:

• ATTACK_SHIP: ->FLEE
• FLEE: ->ATTACK_SHIP
• GLOBAL: ->ATTACK_SHIP

No references to other AI's, will exit after completion.
