Comment (by sluicebox):
Thanks for reporting, this and the SQ6 entrance bay are indeed the two
worst symptoms of pathfinding algorithm differences that we can't easily
fix without replacing the entire algorithm. Sierra patented their
algorithm, which is why we're in this situation. We can do it now, but
it's much harder to do it this late in the game instead of the beginning.
I have a plan though, maybe someday.
We already have an open ticket for the brain pathfinding issues: #9589, is
this any different?
