 Well, this is pretty hard indeed... Even for humans, if the map becomes
 complicated... You see, there is a shorter route than te one you mentioned
 above... 5 right, 2 up, 9 left, 2 up... This saves 1 move-point (1 for
 normal terrain and 2 for mountains, etc)
 Of course, it is possible, but I couldn't think of anything else then
 trying allmost all the possibilities... What you could try is first to find
 the most efficient horizontal path, then check if it if easy to get on that
 path vertically and put that in a loop... I don't know what the result will
 be..
