Thank you Dijkstra
So in developing a grid based strategy game, I had problem. I wanted different terrain types which would, in turn affect movement.
Thanks to a severe lack of memory and imagination on my part I was having real trouble with a seemingly trivial aspect of the game. Those glowing boxes which tell you where you can move. I had a simple way of doing it, but it wouldn't handle terrain types.
However, a memory of a memory surfaced, and I recalled the answer.
Basically, with a little modification, this algorithm should do what I need. I'm a bit concerned about how it will handle some things, but it should be all right.
Joy.
