| Member Of: | land | ||
| Syntax: | table land.findPathOnRoads(string roadType , number xCoord , number yCoord , number destX , number destY ) | ||
| Description: | Returns a table of points along a that define a route from a starting point to a destination point.
Returned table is a table of vec2 points indexed numerically from starting point to destination. Table can return a high number of points over a relatively short route. So expect to iterate through a large number of values. Roadtype can be 'railroads' or 'roads' NOTE!!! A bug exists where the value for railroads is actually 'rails'. This is different from the sister function getClosestPointOnRoads!
