The process that finds a teleportable spot for Merky to teleport to could use parallelization to be more efficient.

Here is the best example I've found on how to do it: https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/JobSystemParallelForJobs.html (2020-11-12)

The goals for this optimization:

[ ] reduce the amount of processing time required to find a teleportable spot
[ ] improve the accuracy of the teleportable spot (this is especially important when wall climbing)
