The way I see it, by implementing partial pathing, the weight of the function would be more evenly distributed. Instead of calculating the full path in a single tick, you would calculate only part of it, then walk that part, then generate another part, and so on and so forth.
Plus, when it comes to following a target, I would only need to regen a partial if the target was within a specific amount of blocks. So I would get a performance boost there.
I'm going to go implement it that way, and if anyone has any problems with it, we can always go back and change it later (preferably when the AI is nearing completion).
