	<description>
		An implementation of the A* algorithm, used to find the shortest path between two vertices on a connected graph in 2D space.
		See [AStar3D] for a more thorough explanation on how to use this class. [AStar2D] is a wrapper for [AStar3D] that enforces 2D coordinates.

			<param index="0" name="id" type="int" />
			<param index="1" name="position" type="Vector2" />
			<param index="2" name="weight_scale" type="float" default="1.0" />
			<description>
				Adds a new point at the given position with the given identifier. The [param id] must be 0 or larger, and the [param weight_scale] must be 0.0 or greater.
				The [param weight_scale] is multiplied by the result of [method _compute_cost] when determining the overall cost of traveling across a segment from a neighboring point to this point. Thus, all else being equal, the algorithm prefers points with lower [param weight_scale]s to form a path.
				[codeblocks]
				[gdscript]
				var astar = AStar2D.new()

				var astar = new AStar2D();
				astar.AddPoint(1, new Vector2(1, 0), 4); // Adds the point (1, 0) with weight_scale 4 and id 1
				[/csharp]
				[/codeblocks]
				If there already exists a point for the given [param id], its position and weight scale are updated to the given values.

			<description>
				Returns an array with the IDs of the points that form the path found by AStar2D between the given points. The array is ordered from the starting point to the ending point of the path.

				[b]Note:[/b] When [param allow_partial_path] is [code]true[/code] and [param to_id] is disabled the search may take an unusually long time to finish.

				[/csharp]
				[/codeblocks]
				If you change the 2nd point's weight to 3, then the result will be [code][1, 4, 3][/code] instead, because now even though the distance is longer, it's "easier" to get through point 4 than through point 2.
