Goal Boxes

[seveibar]

When routing, we can evaluate if there's a better goal for a point. This could also be done via an orchestrator that runs a couple short autoroutes

This evaluation could be done inside of core if it preselected the points, but that wouldn't allow us to benchmark, so i think the method should at least be exposed here

Here are some pull requests that might be helpful reference for this task:

• Gridless Point of Interest Approach
• Infinite Grid Algorithms
• infgrid-ijump non-diagonal optimizations

This might have already been done via: introduce alternative goal box functions.

We can't use a full connectivity map here, we should look at all the pcb_trace elements, see which one connects to either of the pointsToConnect, the rewrite both the start and goal point to be the nearest point between the two nets

This might be a duplicate of: Orchestrators for nearest alternative goals.

[homie-gg[bot]]

This might have already been done via: Alternative Goal Boxes Part 2/3 (math utilities, calculation of goal boxes, snapshot "worst case" example to fix).

[homie-gg[bot]]

This might have already been done via: finish goal box implementation (net shortcuts).

[homie-gg[bot]]

This might have already been done via: enable goalbox optimization.
