2D Vector Turret Program Complete (For the Most Part)

Phew!
I've been working since I last posted about the problem I ran into, and I have solved it. Using the good 'ol Tactics of visual representations, notebook, and my brain. It's kinda what I resort to for things like this. Anyway, I started by rewriting all my code to simplify it. The previous version I was working on had quite a phew things that could be simplified and made more efficient.

So heres a quick picture that describes what me, myself, and I (visual,notebook, and brain) came up with:

The thought process for the targeting function

Once you reduce the vectors down to their magnitude and just work with the simplest of all physics equations (v=d/t) its actually quite simple. And I'm surprised I didn't think of it earlier. If only someone followed this blog, or posted comments, they could suggest things to me. Anyway, Heres the output of my program after running it:

As you can see, the Fired projectile and the UFO (comeon, if something is unidentified, flying at you, and an object you want to shoot, what else do you call it? ) slowly get closer together as the seconds go by. In both the last and second to last stages of the output you can see it get extremely close and 'pass' the target. But because this 'pass' is so close, it means the UFO got nailed, because I doubt the thing we're trying to shoot is only .5 of a unit in radius.

So now, I think I may contemplate moving this into 3 Dimensions. First I'll have to rework my vector2d class into a 3d vector class. Or maybe I'll just look for source code online. Wish me luck!
