/*
 * This file has the core function for AyStar
 *  AyStar is a fast pathfinding routine and is used for things like
 *  AI_pathfinding and Train_pathfinding.
 *  For more information about AyStar (A* Algorithm), you can look at
 *    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A-star_search_algorithm
 */
 
/*
 * Friendly reminder:
 *  Call (AyStar).free() when you are done with Aystar. It reserves a lot of memory
 *  And when not free'd, it can cause system-crashes.
 * Also remember that when you stop an algorithm before it is finished, your
 * should call clear() yourself!
