Several activities that queue child Move activities can get into a bad scenario where the actor is pathfinding and then gets stuck because the destination is unreachable. When the Move activity then completes, then parent activity sees it has yet to reach the destination and tries to move again. However, the actor is still blocked in the same spot as before and thus the movment finishes immediately. This causes a performance death spiral where the actor attempts to pathfind every tick. The pathfinding attempt can also be very expensive if it must exhaustively check the whole map to determine no route is possible.
In order to prevent blocked actors from running into this scenario, we introduce MoveCooldownHelper. In its default setup it allows the parent activity to bail out if the actor was blocked during a pathfinding attempt. This means the activity will be dropped rather than trying to move endlessly. It also has an option to allow retrying if pathfinding was blocked, but applies a cooldown to avoid the performance penalty. For activities such as Enter, this means the actors will still try and enter their target if it is unreachable, but will only attempt once a second now rather than every tick.
MoveAdjacentTo will now cancel if it fails to reach the destination. This fixes MoveOntoAndTurn to skip the Turn if the move didn't reach the intended destination. Any other derived classes will similarly benefit from skipping follow-up actions.
This allows the LINQ spelling to be used, but benefits from the performance improvement of the specific methods for these classes that provide the same result.
Previously, the ClosestTo and PositionClosestTo existed to perform a simple distance based check to choose the closest location from a choice of locations to a single other location. For some functions this is sufficient, but for many functions we want to then move between the locations. If the location selected is in fact unreachable (e.g. on another island) then we would not want to consider it.
We now introduce ClosestToIgnoringPath for checks where we don't care about a path existing, e.g. weapons hitting nearby targets. When we do care about paths, we introduce ClosestToWithPathFrom and ClosestToWithPathTo which will check that a path exists. The PathFrom check will make sure one of the actors from the list can make it to the single target location. The PathTo check will make sure the single actor can make it to one of the target locations. This difference allows us to specify which actor will be doing the moving. This is important as a path might exists for one actor, but not another. Consider two islands with a hovercraft on one and a tank on the other. The hovercraft can path to the tank, but the tank cannot path to the hovercraft.
We also introduce WithPathFrom and WithPathTo. These will perform filtering by checking for valid paths, but won't select the closest location.
By employing the new methods that filter for paths, we fix various behaviour that would cause actors to get confused. Imagine an islands map, by checking for paths we ensure logic will locate reachable locations on the island, rather than considering a location on a nearby island that is physically closer but unreachable. This fixes AI squad automation, and other automated behaviours such as rearming.
When laying mine with PreLayDelay > 0, end activity's tick immediately. That means don't try to immediately move to next cell.
This change unifies the behavior with scenario when a mine is laid without any PreLayDelay.
Provides two callbacks using INotifyMineLaying interface: MineLaying (just before laying a mine), MineLaid after mine actor has been created (in FrameEndTask)
