Okay :) > you still need to integrate python for a lot of the heavy lifting and functionality Yes indeed, and that's why i thought that my proposal would still...

That makes sense, separating logical components is generally a useful constraint to keep in mind, I would say. But the drawback is possible unneeded overengineering, so the golden path is...

I'll start with a few: The ones **with a checkmark** are more or less implemented for the old engine architecture. All need a proper reimplementation for the integration into #740....

Never heard of it, but it [looks cool](https://www.gnu.org/software/liquidwar6/) and has probably nice inspiration for some areas.

The thing most complained about by aoe2 players i think is pathfinding bugs and especially blockages. So i guess we can try doing something awesome and wait for feedback. Imagine...

Thanks for the links and ideas :) The concrete plan for our pathfinding is definitely not cut in stone. We have all options and I'd go for a extensible, step-by-step...
