Comment (by m-kiewitz):

 I don't really like patching things like this out.
 The actual problem here as you have also said is the pathfinding algo.

 I'm on my way rewriting that plus making it so that it actually works like
 the original.
 It's rather time consuming and complicated, so it will take some time.

 Originally another algo was used because of patent infringement (and that
 algo is primarily from FreeSCI - really interesting if you want to read
 about it - see https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/SCI/FreeSCI/Pathfinding
 ).
