Pathfinding

Pathfinding allows you to complete a stage with a percentage of cells still unsolved.

Your pathfinding % is multiplied by the size of the stage to determine the number of unsolved cells you're allowed to skip. Visible cells and cells with monsters are considered solved, and other cells are considered unsolved. When the number of remaining unsolved cells is lower than the number of cells you can skip, all remaining cells without monsters are revealed, which completes the stage.

For example, if you have 10% pathfinding on a stage with size 500, you can skip 50 cells. If there are 150 monsters on the stage, your pathfinding will trigger once you have opened 301 cells without monsters (500-150-301=49, which is lower than 50).

Note that if the monster density is high enough, it's possible for pathfinding to complete stages instantly. If that size 500 stage has 442 monsters, the 9 cells that you open with your first click will be enough to trigger pathfinding (500-442-9=49).

You may have up to a maximum of 50% pathfinding, or down to -50%.

Negative pathfinding gives you a chance to finish the stage without marking it as complete.

The  Scout Mastery is based around pathfinding.

Hovering your profile avatar will show your pathfinding stat, and the number of target number of unsolved cells required to autocomplete the current stage.
