/* This program operates by filling in a state table representing the best
 * possible trips you could make; the ones that makes you the most money.
 * This is feasible because we don't look at all the possible trips.
 * We define a list of things that are germane to this game and then only
 * consider the best outcome in each possible game state.
 *
 * Each cell in the table represents a state in the game.  In each cell,
 * we track two things: 1. the most money you could possibly have while in
 * that state and 2. one possible way to get into that state with that
 * amount of money.
 *
 * A basic analysis can be done with a two-dimensional table: location and
 * fuel.  planeteer-1.0 used this two-dimensional table.  This version
 * adds features mostly by adding dimensions to this table.
 *
 * Note that the sizes of each dimension are data driven.  Many dimensions
 * collapse to one possible value (ie, disappear) if the corresponding
 * feature is not enabled.
 *
 * The order of the dimensions in the list of constants below determines
 * their layout in RAM.  The cargo-based 'dimensions' are not completely
 * independent -- some combinations are illegal and not used.  They are
 * handled as three dimensions rather than one for simplicity.  Placing
 * these dimensions first causes the unused cells in the table to be
 * grouped together in large blocks.  This keeps them from polluting
 * cache lines, and if they are large enough, prevent the memory manager
 * from allocating pages for these areas at all.
 *
 * If the table gets too big to fit in RAM:
 *    * Combine the Edens, Cloaks, and UnusedCargo dimensions.  Of the
 *      24 combinations, only 15 are legal: a 38% savings.
 *    * Reduce the size of the Fuel dimension to 3.  We only ever look
 *      backwards 2 units, so just rotate the logical values through
 *      the same 3 physical addresses.  This is good for an 82% savings.
 *    * Reduce the size of the Edens dimension from 3 to 2, for the
 *      same reasons as Fuel above.  33% savings.
 *    * Buy more ram.  (Just sayin'.  It's cheaper than you think.)
