- Adjusted how we calculate "too dangerous to TP into", so bots should be less suicidal when TPing in to defend.

- When bots really would like to defend a tower but are lacking the ability to TP there, we greatly increase the "consider going to the side shop to buy a TP" distance.

- Fixed bug where bots would path to the wrong location when farming a neutral camp.
