Comment (by OMGPizzaGuy):

 While the animation add a few extra frames, I feel the primary thing that
 make movement feel slow is the delay before movement when using mouse-
 based movement. The delay is normal 500ms for the double-click timeout to
 occur. This can be reduced with the "double_click_time" config setting,
 but any value less than 250 may be difficult perform a normal double
 click.
 Alternately you might try keyboard/gamepad movement, which can be relative
 (tank - turn left/right, move forward) or absolute (directional - move
 left/right/up/down). This method has no movement delay.

 I could also experiment with removing the mouse delay when not in combat,
 as nothing maps to right double-click in normal movement.

 Removal of turn animations is possible in Actor::turnTowardDir, but I
 found the result unpleasant and would like to consider other options
 before reworking this as a supported config setting.
