Makes me wonder why anyone would use anything but A* or greedy algorithm. Fun to play with and watch!

Factorio had a blog post a while ago explaining why basic A* didn't work for them. On my phone right now so I can't find it easily but I'm pretty sure it was posted in HN.

Edit: found it. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21294354
