I'd like to know the answer to question number 3 also. I believe the question is what is the maximum value we should expect for a route length? With A* path finding algorithms you assign an "infinity" value to unused node's that is larger than the largest expected value (i.e. 32767).
Thanks,

that's what i meant:
3) what is the maximum cost to expect.
and now a general contest question:
4) can i participate with 2 scripts or it's only 1 script per user?
i mean this, becouse i can have 2 kind of scripts:
a) the perfect solution, take a long time
B) the quickest, imperfect one.
so depending on the input i could win with a) or B)....
it would be nice to submit 2 versions... [/b][/quote]
OK I see know -
Well I can't give you the exact figure but I guess no more than if you use 1000 as a max you will be fine
I don't intent having a huge map.
As for your other question about submittions per user - only one entry per user is the only way, otherwise everyone could submit 10 seperate methods and that would suck in many ways
Hope this helps
