[Pogamut-list] List With All NavPoints of The Map

Hello cazub,

Okey - so if I understand correctly you want every NavPoint that *IS
NOT SPECIAL* ... if so, you have to parse unreal id, because every
item IS navpoint as well as every player start - it's the nature of
the UT2004. Can't help you there ... but we should include this into
next major version of Pogamut thanks.

No problem with sluggishness here ;-) ... just override
postPrepareAgent() method in your agent class and preprocess all
navpoints beforehand into map Map<Integer, NavPointType>, the key is
Integer ID of the NavPoint, value is enum NavPointType{ PlayerStart,
InventorySpot, PathNode; } (you have to create that) so do something
like this:

public postPrepareAgent() {
for(NavPoint np : this.memory.knownNavPoints() ) {
NavPointType type = parseNavPointType(np.UnrealID);
navPointTypeMap.put(np.ID, type);
}
}

Where parseNavPointType(UnrealID) is your method that parses the
UnrealID of the NavPoint and determine it's type.

Cheers, Jakub!
