Jan 29, 2022 at 8:15 comment added tsh May I assume the board is less than (or equals to) 8x8?
Jan 28, 2022 at 14:13 comment added thejonymyster suggested testcase: one where the straight path to the goal takes more X tile placements than following a longer route to the goal which already has many X tiles. Either way though, this is pretty much ready to post

Jan 26, 2022 at 14:06 comment added thejonymyster your first test case is wrong, you can do it in 1: (-2,+1), (+1,+2)
Jan 26, 2022 at 8:27 comment added user110579 @pajonk I've added your edited testcase and some of your testcase suggestions. Thank you for your suggestions!

Jan 26, 2022 at 8:18 comment added pajonk I've edited my example in the meantime to highlight its "trappy" nature. You may also want to add more test-cases (like with more Xs or where the ouput is 0).

Jan 26, 2022 at 8:14 comment added user110579 @pajonk In this case, I think I'm trying to define a challenge that allows "traps" in the input. I'll clarify that in the challenge.
Jan 26, 2022 at 8:12 comment added pajonk I mean e.g. DX./.../.../.../..K, where putting X in the middle is sufficient and you don't need to reach the existing X.
Jan 26, 2022 at 8:12 comment added user110579 May you give an example of not using the X tiles leading to the minimal solution?
Jan 26, 2022 at 8:08 comment added pajonk May we assume that using existing X tiles leads to minimal solution or may there be "traps"?
