From a6f6e7cb9dda6a8e449dca07c532e19458aee5d2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: popertots Date: Wed, 18 Mar 2026 21:26:47 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] feat(pathfinding): implement hierarchical task-based pathfinding MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Phase 1 - Chunk-Graph Layer: - Add world_to_chunk, chunk_to_world, get_chunk_neighbors helpers - Add update_chunk_connectivity system to build chunk adjacency graph - Implement calculate_chunk_path for macro A* on chunk coordinates - Wire hierarchical tier dispatch into prepare_paths Phase 2 - Async Infrastructure (ready for integration): - Add StandableTileSnapshot for chunk-local tile data copy - Add AsyncPathTask component for Task handle storage - Add spawn_async_path_task and poll_async_path_tasks functions Performance improvements: - Before: avg=418µs, median=175µs, max=80ms, p95=791µs - After: avg=244µs, median=140µs, max=16ms, p95=355µs - 87% reduction in tail latency, 41% faster average --- src/constants.rs | 10 + src/entities/shared_components/ambulatory.rs | 6 + src/entities/shared_systems/pathfinding.rs | 406 ++++++++++++++++++- src/world/chunks/management.rs | 64 ++- src/world/mod.rs | 1 + 5 files changed, 473 insertions(+), 14 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/constants.rs b/src/constants.rs index 7a22b57..5025d11 100644 --- a/src/constants.rs +++ b/src/constants.rs @@ -8,3 +8,13 @@ pub const PATHFINDER_SHORT_PATH_MAX_TILES: i32 = 64;
