Path Finding Problems

So as i finished up the client side information and server side database setup for equipment, I decided to go ahead and test the Ferries a bit more. I found a very serious problem with them and im not too sure how im going to get around it right now. Pretty much what happens is the path finding while on a ferry will consider land, but we add distance to each land tile to make it less "Preferrable" by the client. However once it finds the goal it stops going even if it did go through land. This gives me an incorrect path to the goal causing the user to dismount where he is at right now, or the closest location to land. I gatta think about how to fix this one. On the good side i believe i know exactly how Homing shots will be implemented, but equipment is on hold until this serious bug is fixed.
