Used by the routine at HandlerFlame.
Starts a new direction timer for a flame (64 frames) and chooses its velocity. On every other call the velocity is random: the X velocity comes from the table at FlameVelocities and the Y velocity from the counter and the Z80 refresh register. On the other calls the flame heads towards the player (see AimFlameAtPlayer).
