Very good code, I like much and congratulation.
Thanks for testing! As I'm sure you can tell by the FPS, I'm having a heck of a time with finding a good ratio between FPS and cpu usage in the example, that would be good on all machines..

It's not easy to find the good ratio.
For example, an important pathfinding in 3D game, it's then necessary to find a
divide CPU very fine.
therefore, each user must be define well the power CPU according
to the necessary resources.

It's not the pathfinding which is using all of the cpu..
Also, It already spreads the pathfinding over multiple frames already.

Updated to 3.01, check the changelog.
Note: The fps problem in the example should be fixed.

Very good job Heathen !
I have juste a Question. How can do to find path with "star Treck bridge" (yes i don't know the name for that
).
exemple
if you are on map(12,23) you have translate to map(57,32)
i use this in my game when i have many floor level like a building. When somebody go to ladder or staircases it's translate directly to the next floor.
I hope you understand my bad english!
best regards
Thy

Hello, I don't really understand your question, could you try rephrasing it?
edit: Do you mean teleporting from one tile to another?

Yes ! I retry with a little picture
I want to start in orange square and go to Yellow square
it's a Building with 2 floor.Green square are Ladder or Staircase
Do you understand what I say ?
Some case (ladder/staircase) are like magic door . if you go on your are translate in other case.
Do you understand my idea ?

yes, I understand now. Right now that isn't possible with the current engine, but I will look at my code and see how much work it would be to add it. I don't think it will be too hard to add.

I get an error on line 83
Structure Field not found : tilesize
I have both files... cut and pasted and saved in same place... correctly named too!
And I say don't let monsters use Magic Doors!
I changed that field name to TileHeight and now I get an error on line 87
Structure Field not found : alt_copymemory
