I’m wondering if the new update will contain HPA* pathfinding? Would be cool so we can have tons and tons of people spawned at once. I swear I saw a screenshot of someone working on Worldbox that said something similar to hpa* I can’t find it though. I wonder if that’s why the update is taking forever.

Not sure if that's what you meant, but - we already have hierarchical pathfinding in the game for a long time.

Before units do their normal a*, they do path search on a bigger chunks layer.
