Example game bug where agents slide diagonally instead of moving straight

[nickm980]

Describe the bug

Agents will occasionally move diagonally to the next square instead of turning right at 90 degree angles (for example at the timestamp 0:03) when calling this function

moveAgent({ scene: this, name: "Medina", location: "Red House", })

drifting.mp4

Expected Behavior

Agents should move 90 degrees to their next location without any diagonal movement

I'll look into this

So it looks like navmesh doesn't support axis-aligned movement out of the box. I looked into some other solutions and easystar seems like it might be better if we really need this kind of movement.

Ok - it's not a huge problem because it's mostly aesthetic, but we should probably eventually switch to easystar. It might be better to work on #18 and #17 first and come back to this later
