PlotPath carried its own inline copy of the per-tile movement-cost math, which had drifted from ActionPointCost (the function the real per-step movement and the AI path estimate both already use). That divergence is what made the movement cursor mis-predict the real AP spend - e.g. the start-run penalty getting the diagonal x1.4 in the real cost but not the cursor. Replace the inline switch (and its fence/start-run special-cases) with a per-tile EstimateActionPointCost call, threading the simulated previous tile mode so the one-time start-run charge lands exactly once. The cursor estimate now equals what movement deducts, by construction. Behavioural: player movement-cursor AP numbers (and path reachability colouring that keys off the same total) now match the real spend. Real per-step deduction and AI estimates are unchanged - they already used ActionPointCost. The footstep-colour budget still has its own cost copy; left for a follow-up.

Visual Studio setup
- Run
Visual Studio 2019or newer. - Clone and open the location with the source code using one of these two options:
- Click
Clone a repository- Enter
git@github.com:1dot13/source.gitorhttps://github.com/1dot13/source.gitin the Repository location field, select the path you want to clone the repository to and clickClone. - Double-click on
Folder Viewin theSolution Explorer
- Enter
- Click
Open a local folder- Use this option if you already cloned the repository yourself.
- Click
- Visual Studio detects
CMakePresets.jsonand lists themsvc-*configurations. Executables are written togamedir/. - To build only some applications, or to debug against a different JA2 1.13 install, add/modify a
CMakeUserPresets.jsonin the source root that inherits one of the shipped presets and sets theApplicationsand/orCMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORYcacheVariables. Language is chosen at runtime, not at configure time. - Use
Build -> Build Allto build.
