// a best path to the end node from the start node,
// utilizing data available to it from the Monster and
// DungeonLevel references
// Parameters: Monster monster , a reference to a monster where
// pathfinding data specific to that monster is mined
// DungeonLevel level , a reference to a DungeonLevel so
// that critical information about its layers, in regards to
// pathfinding, can be mined
// short startXCoord ,
// short startYCoord , the x and y-coordinate on the
// DungeonLayer of the DungeonLevel that the entity is
// beginning to pathfind from
// short endXCoord ,
// short endYCoord , the x and y-coordinate on the
// DungeonLayer of the DungeonLevel that the entity is
// attempting to find a path to
// short searchDistance , how far the pathfinder will search
// before breaking with either a noPath or a "kinda" path.
// The default is 0, or search the entire searchspace
// bool guessPath , if true, the pathfinder will try to
// return a path to a location near the goal, or if the
// pathfinder exits early because of a searchDistance limit,
// will return with a path "going toward" the goal. The
// default is off (false)
// byte algToUse , -1 is Djikstra's algorithm. This is
// just a bad choice. 1 is greedy best-first, which is
// optimal in the case of known very short paths, as it is
// fastest and its inaccuracy is ruled out in short paths.
// 0 is A*, which is the fastest longer-distance algorithm
// to use, and is also the default

// length of the calculated path, and the direction in which
// the first step of the path begins
