Bug Description

Currently, particles with WindEffect tend to float at a constant velocity in a constant direction. It should be possible to specify the frequency and energy of making this "wind" change at runtime, like in Worms, where the wind randomly switches direction and power.

##### ADDITIONAL INFORMATION #####
Currently thinking of:

[WindEffects]
ChangeFrequency = 900 ; try and change the effects every x frames
ChanceOfDirectionChange = 100 ; x / 100 odds of changing to a random direction every ^ frames
ChanceOfEnergyChange = 100 ; x / 100 odds of changing energy every ^^ frames
MaxEnergy = 185 ; x / 100 = max random multiplier to [Particle]WindEffect if changing, e.g. "wind can speed up to at most 185/100ths of its average force"
MinEnergy = 10 ; x / 100 = min random multiplier to [Particle]WindEffect if changing , e.g. 10 means "wind can drop down to 10/100ths of its average force"
