refactoring the Harvesters' pathfinding. Now they in first place assess
which is the closest resource inside their search area and then a path is
calculated
Changed the way harvesters find resources by always trying to find the
closest resource to their refinery.
Changed the strategy of finding to find resources in Annulus.
If a class is caching the TraitsImplementing enumerable, instead cache the results of enumerating it to an array. The avoids having to enumerate the sequence each time it is needed.
Removes Reloads trait.
This enables adding multiple AmmoPools via @ differentiators and
Name which adds the possibility to assign each armament to a specific
ammo pool.
Furthermore, this moves all Reloads functionality onto AmmoPool.
Now a combination of all three is possible on a single actor: no limited
ammo, limited ammo that can reload on its own, and limited ammo which
needs to be reloaded at a rearm actor.
Additionally moves RearmSound from Minelayer to AmmoPool.
Introduced also a small Unit test project to prove it.
- Separated caching capabilities from PathFinder class to increase cohesion and maintainability.
Refactored the pathfinding algorithm by extracting methods based on responsibilities like
calculating costs and reordering functions. These changes should provide a in average a small increase in
pathfinding performance and maintainability.
- Optimized the pathfinder algorithm to reuse calculations like the
MovementCost and heuristics.
- Introduced base classes, IPathSearch and IPriorityQueue interfaces,
and restructured code to ease readability and testability
- Renamed the PathFinder related classes to more appropriate names. Made the
traits rely on the interface IPathfinder instead of concrete PathFinder
implementation.
- Massive performance improvements
- Solved error with harvesters' Heuristic
- Updated the heuristic to ease redability and adjustability. D can be
adjusted to offer best paths by decreasing and more performance by
increasing it
- Refactored the CellLayer<CellInfo> creation in its own Singleton class
- Extracted the graph abstraction onto an IGraph interface, making the
Pathfinder agnostic to the definition of world and terrain. This
abstraction can help in the future to be able to cache graphs for similar
classes and their costs, speeding up the pathfinder and being able to feed
the A* algorithm with different types of graphs like Hierarchical graphs
