LB2: Pathfinding problems

Reported by: SF/escarlate Owned by: waltervn
Priority: normal Component: Engine: SCI
Version: Keywords:
Cc: Game: Laura Bow 2: The Dagger of Amon-Ra

Description

If Laura escapes to the reception room with the giant Ramses bust, the murderer eventually arrives there but doesn't kill her, the game stops responding and the top menu is disabled with the exception of the "?" icon help option. Also, if she closes the left exit in the pterodactyl room, she can't move until the doors are opened again. No console output in both cases, I attached a savegame below in the pterodactyl exhibit.

Game: Laura Bow 2: The Dagger of Amon Ra (CD/DOS/English) Game Version: VGA CD v1.1 ScummVM Version: 1.2.0svn52134 OS: Win32 (XP SP2)

just checked with youtube. Laura is supposed to run away. Problem is her pathfinding doesnt return anything, so she stays there and the murderer gets stuck on her. Assigning to walter.

Merged duplicate bug #3048213 into this one. The saved game is the same. From that bug:

"Laura Bow 2: The Dagger of Amon Ra (CD/DOS/English), version 1.1 Laura Bow 2: The Dagger of Amon Ra (DOS/English), version 1.000 ScummVM 1.2.0svn52199

Situation: Laura enters mastodon skeleton room from the right Bug: Laura takes weird u turn before resting on correct entry spot. No console output.

Attached savegame. Saved at start of weird motion, all movement shown before regaining control of the mouse is pathfinder weirdness."

All of these problems are caused by the same issue: we avoid plotting a path along screen edges in AStar() inside kpathing.cpp. This is different per game (e.g. if we disable that for LSL5, Patti walks through a wall in one scene). Disabling that code removes all of these bugs
