Navigation Benchmark

Summary

The benchmark compares hunter movement cost. Lower moves and ticks indicate a more efficient return strategy.

Results

Interpretation

BFS is the shortest-path strategy and produced the lowest movement cost in this benchmark. Breadcrumb performed better than random movement but still spent extra steps retracing path history. Random remains the intentionally inefficient baseline.

How To Reproduce

npm run benchmark

The benchmark script runs seeded simulations and writes summary artifacts under the repository's benchmark data.
