Because I'm impatient I went ahead and added several #path commands for direct manipulation and saving of the pathing system. I made blackburrow and qeynos2 maps and they work quite well but I'm still working out the quirks in the commands.
#path process is fairly CPU intensive and should probably not be used on any live servers.
#path resort 's use isn't very obvious but basically if you delete a connection it can leave holes in the neighbors list which causes paths to completely fail; because for optimizing reasons when the path code comes to a hole it assumes it's the end of the line, it resorts it so there are no more holes in path node neighbors.
Also no changes are actually made to the .path file in the maps folder, if you don't #path dump it all your changes are lost when the zone boots down.
Everything else should be fairly straight forward.
