Historical pathfinding functions and integration notes by Evren, with directions, complete-path searches, and room-predicate examples for Merc-derived games.
About this resource
Contains paths.c and paths.txt with pathfinding functions, direction and full-path queries, and examples using room predicates. Integration adds visited state to rooms and requires header and build changes. License and attribution The source permits use with its headers retained. Feedback by email is requested by the author. Preserve the original notices and applicable underlying game licenses. Compatibility warning Written for historical Merc-derived structures and tested by its author with Envy. Callers must manage returned path allocations correctly. This is an integration snippet, not a standalone program. Historical software warning Mudhaven has not compiled, boot-tested, or security-audited this material. Modern compiler and operating-system compatibility is unverified. Read the included notices before use; historical contact addresses may no longer work.
Compatibility
Author tested Envy; Merc requires manual adaptation and room/header/build changes.
