If anyone has a tougher path planning problem and needs a better heuristic, I wrote an article a few years ago that might help: http://razorcode.net/articles/vehicle-path-planning.html

Thanks for writing this article! Would you mind if I share it in WeeklyRobotics( https://weeklyrobotics.com/ ) next week?

Feel free, it exists to be read. And you just gained a subscriber.

For me it hangs on IDA* otherwise mighty well done! Ideas to add: - a short description of the algorithm - zoom out + knight tour

Also thought IDA* hanged. An indicator indicating initialization would be helpful (didn't see one).

Indicators that indicate are of the best kind.

Joke aside: kudos on turning a perceived frustration into a feature fix. I wouldn't have thought about that.

Look, I was merely trying to give the author more information by verifying your observation. Your remark to me seems reasonable only if the author can see how many upvotes/downvotes a certain comment has. I don't know if he can.
