+ Optimization with pathing (This will be multiple weeks)
+ Implemented a grid of destination points instead of just having all the units try to pile onto a single destination point
- This is still in its most simple form, where each movement order is staggered
- The grid also avoids placing destination points at impassible or inaccessible points, though this is patchy
+ Here is the current music playlist for anyone that wants a listen:
