THE PATH FINDING ENGINE

Formally know as PFE (PathFinding Engine).

PFE is a basic software to find a direct path in a 2D map. A large-scalable solution for big map using minimum process time.

September 17th: Version 1.0

• Color code to see alternative path and dead end.

• Resizable map.

• Unlimited resizable map engine (currently only 400*400 at screen more than this we can see them anymore).

• Unlimited number of path in the same time engine (currently only two at display)

• Path can be start and stop live.

• Large-scalable program, constant time to take a move decision, linear time to find the path.

• Optimization using 2 techniques describe here.

• Use registry to save you setting.

• The default button (press by enter) will be new map or solution instead of Quit!

• Top right display control can be disable/enable by clicking on it.

• Zooming and scroling the map (this will also help to support very big map over 500*500)

• Importing/export map.

October 7th 2001: The display process is pretty slow (it draw horizontal and vertical lines, fills every rectangles for each cell. On huge (1000*1000) this is very long! Version 1.1 will be completely different. The program will display a bitmap. Currently the bitmap format that I use is not device-independent. In a couple of weeks, the new version show be ready.
