Somewhat coincidentally, this week’s updates have included something I’d been working on for a few weeks before – an upgrade to the enemy pathfinding system.

New pathfinding algorithm is good... way too much.
Totally was not prepared to run around my outposts improving defense.
It's sort of Bob's Warfare in vanilla now.

The real question is.

Because of the new pathfinding... if you leave an opening can you funnel the biters to a single kill zone now...

Would let you consolidate your defenses more.

the pathfinding changes should not change this. As said in the FFF, the changes are only about water or no water.

Well in fact, the previous FFF explained that biters ignore each other's hitboxes when pathfinding individually. This is in addition to the hierarchical pathfinding in this FFF. Both changes took effect with version 0.17.70
