*
* 1) A* requires searching the entire god damn map sometimes; runs on the same thread; will search every node to find a path just to find out that it's not traversable
2) If the path-finding leads to somewhere that is ultimately not reachable, the code will stutter horribly and die.
Optimizations:
1) Make sure we don't bother path finding to a place that is unreachable
2) Remove linearity from closedList; replace it with something more high speed (O(1), hash set?)
*
* #2 was implemented here, gains are huge as is vs. a linear search
