- Consuming methods cared only about the count and not the actual actors, so only counts the actors rather that creating lists.
- ProvidesPrerequisites implementations return cached objects rather then allocating new enumerables on each call.
The Harvester trait and MoveAdjacentTo activity called the pathfinder but had a single source and multiple targets. The pathfinder interface only allows for the opposite: multiple sources and a single target. To work around this they would swap the inputs. This works in most cases but not all cases. One aspect of asymmetry is that an actor may move out of an inaccessible source cell, but not onto an inaccessible target cell.
Searches that involved an inaccessible source cell and that applied this swapping method would therefore fail to return a path, when a valid path was possible. Although a rare case, once good way to reproduce is to use a production building that spawns actors on inaccessible cells around it, such as the RA naval yard. A move order uses the pathfinder correctly and the unit will move out. Using a force attack causes the unit to use the broken "swapped" mechanism in MoveAdjacentTo and it will be stuck.
This asymmetry has been longstanding but the pathfinding infrastructure only sporadically accounted for it. It is now documented and applied consistently. Create a new overload on the pathfinder trait that allows a single source and multiple targets, so callers have an overload that does what they need and won't be tempted to swap the positions and run into this issue.
Internally, this requires us to teach Locomotor to ignore the self actor when performing movement cost checks for these "in reverse" searches so the unit doesn't consider the cell blocked by itself.

- Remaining rules are treated as part of OpenRA style.
Multiple layers of Lazy<T>ness are replaced with
an explicit two-part loading scheme.
Sequences are parsed immediately, without the need
for the sprite assets, and tell the SpriteCache
which frames they need. Use-cases that want the
actual sprites can then tell the SpriteCache to
load the frames and the sequences to resolve the
sprites.
