Steemnova - correct base speed calculation for small cargos, bombers and recyclers

Bug Fixes

What was the issue(s)?

As described in the issue mys created the base speed for various ship types should change according to the researched technologies.

Type	Basespeed	Technology	New Speed
Small Cargo	5000	Impulse Drive lvl5	10000
Bomber	4000	Hyperspace Drive lvl8	5000
Recycler	2000	Impulse Drive lvl17	4000
Recycler	2000	Hyperspace Drive lvl15	6000

What was the solution?

The new speed is saved in the database in the column "speed2".
Therefore I needed to detect if the various technologies where having the right level for this shiptype.
If yes we would have to calculate the speed with the value of "speed2".
For this purpose I created a new variable $base_speed and stored the correct value in it.

_{(If you are wondering about the hardcoded value for the recycler: this is because to store the value in the database we would need another column and this was out of scope for now. )}

I later used $base-speed to calculate the final speed:

After this was done the speed for the recycler in the database would need an update too:
