+-- # The ASTAR Concept
+-- 
+-- Pathfinding algorithm.
+-- 
+-- 
+-- # Start and Goal
+-- 
+-- The first thing we need to define is obviously the place where we want to start and where we want to go eventually.
+-- 
+-- ## Start
+-- 
+-- The start
+-- 
+-- ## Goal 
+-- 
+-- 
+-- # Nodes
+-- 
+-- ## Rectangular Grid
+-- 
+-- A rectangular grid can be created using the @{#ASTAR.CreateGrid}(*ValidSurfaceTypes, BoxHY, SpaceX, deltaX, deltaY, MarkGrid*), where
+-- 
+-- * *ValidSurfaceTypes* is a table of valid surface types. By default all surface types are valid.
+-- * *BoxXY* is the width of the grid perpendicular the the line between start and end node. Default is 40,000 meters (40 km).
+-- * *SpaceX* is the additional space behind the start and end nodes. Default is 20,000 meters (20 km).
+-- * *deltaX* is the grid spacing between nodes in the direction of start and end node. Default is 2,000 meters (2 km).
+-- * *deltaY* is the grid spacing perpendicular to the direction of start and end node. Default is the same as *deltaX*.
+-- * *MarkGrid* If set to *true*, this places marker on the F10 map on each grid node. Note that this can stall DCS if too many nodes are created. 
+-- 
+-- ## Valid Surfaces
+-- 
+-- Certain unit types can only travel on certain surfaces types, for example
+-- 
+-- * Naval units can only travel on water (that also excludes shallow water in DCS currently),
+-- * Ground units can only traval on land.
+-- 
+-- By restricting the surface type in the grid construction, we also reduce the number of nodes, which makes the algorithm more efficient.
+-- 
+-- ## Box Width (BoxHY)
+-- 
+-- The box width needs to be large enough to capture all paths you want to consider.
+-- 
+-- ## Space in X
+-- 
+-- The space in X value is important if the algorithm needs to to backwards from the start node or needs to extend even further than the end node.
+-- 
+-- ## Grid Spacing
+-- 
+-- The grid spacing is an important factor as it determines the number of nodes and hence the performance of the algorithm. It should be as large as possible.
+-- However, if the value is too large, the algorithm might fail to get a valid path.
+-- 
+-- A good estimate of the grid spacing is to set it to be smaller (~ half the size) of the smallest gap you need to path.
+-- 
+-- # Valid Neighbours
+-- 
+-- The A* algorithm needs to know if a transition from one node to another is allowed or not. By default, hopping from one node to another is always possible.
+-- 
+-- ## Line of Sight
+-- 
+-- For naval
+--  
+-- 
+-- # Heuristic Cost
+-- 
+-- In order to determine the optimal path, the pathfinding algorithm needs to know, how costly it is to go from one node to another.
+-- Often, this can simply be determined by the distance between two nodes. Therefore, the default cost function is set to be the 2D distance between two nodes.
+-- 
+-- 
+-- # Calculate the Path
+-- 
+-- Finally, we have to calculate the path. This is done by the @{ASTAR.GetPath}(*ExcludeStart, ExcludeEnd*) function. This function returns a table of nodes, which
+-- describe the optimal path from the start node to the end node.
+-- 
+-- By default, the start and end node are include in the table that is returned.
+-- 
+-- Note that a valid path must not always exist. So you should check if the function returns *nil*.
+-- 
+-- Common reasons that a path cannot be found are:
+-- 
+-- * The grid is too small ==> increase grid size, e.g. *BoxHY* and/or *SpaceX* if you use a rectangular grid.  
+-- * The grid spacing is too large ==> decrease *deltaX* and/or *deltaY*
+-- * There simply is no valid path ==> you are screwed :(

 -- no other fixed wing aircraft (human or AI controlled) are supposed to land on these ships. Currently only Case I is supported. Case II/III take slightly different steps from the CVN carrier.
--- However, the two Case II/III pattern are very similar so this is not a big drawback.
+-- However, if no offset is used for the holding radial this provides a very close representation of the V/STOL Case III, allowing for an approach to over the deck and a vertical landing.

 -- What are radio communications in DCS?
--- 
+--
 --   * Radio transmissions consist of **sound files** that are broadcasted on a specific **frequency** (e.g. 115MHz) and **modulation** (e.g. AM),
 --   * They can be **subtitled** for a specific **duration**, the **power** in Watts of the transmiter's antenna can be set, and the transmission can be **looped**.
--- 
+--
 -- How to supply DCS my own Sound Files?
---   
+--
 --   * Your sound files need to be encoded in **.ogg** or .wav,
 --   * Your sound files should be **as tiny as possible**. It is suggested you encode in .ogg with low bitrate and sampling settings,
 --   * They need to be added in .\l10n\DEFAULT\ in you .miz file (wich can be decompressed like a .zip file),
 --   * For simplicity sake, you can **let DCS' Mission Editor add the file** itself, by creating a new Trigger with the action "Sound to Country", and choosing your sound file and a country you don't use in your mission.
---   
+--
 -- Due to weird DCS quirks, **radio communications behave differently** if sent by a @{Wrapper.Unit#UNIT} or a @{Wrapper.Group#GROUP} or by any other @{Wrapper.Positionable#POSITIONABLE}
--- 
+--
 --   * If the transmitter is a @{Wrapper.Unit#UNIT} or a @{Wrapper.Group#GROUP}, DCS will set the power of the transmission automatically,
 --   * If the transmitter is any other @{Wrapper.Positionable#POSITIONABLE}, the transmisison can't be subtitled or looped.
---   
+--
 -- Note that obviously, the **frequency** and the **modulation** of the transmission are important only if the players are piloting an **Advanced System Modelling** enabled aircraft,
 -- like the A10C or the Mirage 2000C. They will **hear the transmission** if they are tuned on the **right frequency and modulation** (and if they are close enough - more on that below).

---

 -- There are 3 steps to a successful radio transmission.
--- 
+--
 --   * First, you need to **"add a @{#RADIO} object** to your @{Wrapper.Positionable#POSITIONABLE}. This is done using the @{Wrapper.Positionable#POSITIONABLE.GetRadio}() function,
 --   * Then, you will **set the relevant parameters** to the transmission (see below),

 -- Methods to set relevant parameters for both a @{Wrapper.Unit#UNIT} or a @{Wrapper.Group#GROUP} or any other @{Wrapper.Positionable#POSITIONABLE}

 --   * @{#RADIO.SetModulation}() : Sets the modulation of your transmission.
 --   * @{#RADIO.SetLoop}() : Choose if you want the transmission to be looped. If you need your transmission to be looped, you might need a @{#BEACON} instead...

 --   * If your transmission is sent by a @{Wrapper.Positionable#POSITIONABLE} other than a @{Wrapper.Unit#UNIT} or a @{Wrapper.Group#GROUP}, you can set the power of the antenna,
 --   * Otherwise, DCS sets it automatically, depending on what's available on your Unit,
 --   * If the player gets **too far** from the transmitter, or if the antenna is **too weak**, the transmission will **fade** and **become noisyer**,
 --   * This an automated DCS calculation you have no say on,
 --   * For reference, a standard VOR station has a 100 W antenna, a standard AA TACAN has a 120 W antenna, and civilian ATC's antenna usually range between 300 and 500 W,

 --- **Utilities** Enumerators.

+-- 
 -- An enumerator is a variable that holds a constant value. Enumerators are very useful because they make the code easier to read and to change in general.
---
+-- 
 -- For example, instead of using the same value at multiple different places in your code, you should use a variable set to that value.
 -- If, for whatever reason, the value needs to be changed, you only have to change the variable once and do not have to search through you code and reset
 -- every value by hand.
---
+-- 
 -- Another big advantage is that the LDT intellisense "knows" the enumerators. So you can use the autocompletion feature and do not have to keep all the
--- values in your head or look them up in the docs.
