OMNI Protectors move beyond their observed paths #11

Open qoala opened 4 years ago

qoala commented 4 years ago

Split from https://github.com/qoala/InvisibleInc-CommunityBugFixes/issues/6#issuecomment-666862660

OMNI Protectors only reserve 11 timesteps in the pather. They calculate additional pathing during the guard turn if they still have more AP and haven't reached their destination.

They may end up moving beyond the end of observed/TAGged paths if they have enough firewalls. (because 11 timesteps counts diagonals as 1, the threshold for this is context dependent)

Presumably the fix would involve modifying the pather to predict their paths through their entire AP, not just truncate their movement to the observed path.

To avoid needing to reserve arbitrarily many more timesteps for all guards, could reserve the ending point for all guards at t=999 or similar. Then check that both the requested t and that t=999 final-reservation for tiles when t > 12.
