Research direction

Compare the Chapter 70 book text with the referenced chapter-70-missiles/src/player.rs sections, including the existing fire_on_target code and its F-key call. Update the chapter so both the function and the key binding are explained; it is done when the book covers the code already present in player.rs.

Description

https://github.com/amethyst/rustrogueliketutorial/blob/33872fe582f226178436847e1f74eafcbf9c0d1a/chapter-70-missiles/src/player.rs#L54-L80
https://github.com/amethyst/rustrogueliketutorial/blob/master/chapter-70-missiles/src/player.rs#L482

The chapter 70 forgets to add the fire_on_target function and to call it from player.rs (to fire with the F key). The code for it is in the repo, but not mentioned in the book.
