Re: [Rails-devel] Question regarding existence of routes

[brett l. <bre...@gm...>]

In order to do tile rotations, there is already logic that is aware of the
"exits" of a tile. There's also the route suggestion code.

It might be possible to leverage that same code to create a route graph
that enables detection of destination runs.

It probably needs a fair bit of work to adapt for this purpose, but those
are at least places in the code to start looking.
