### Summary
Fixes the long-standing reports of monsters losing track of players who run around a corner ("Is monster AI not using pathfinding? It seems to be LOS blocked by statics"). Root-cause investigation compared current behavior against RunUO line-by-line and traced the regressions through the AI overhaul era (#2232, #2246, #2379, #2401, #2461).
### Root causes and fixes
1. **Movement contract** — `MoveTo`/`ApproachTarget` returned false on every healthy mid-chase tick (true only on arrival), so MeleeAI's RunUO-inherited *"move failed and beyond RangePerception+1 → Guard"* clause — which RunUO only evaluated on genuine blockage — fired **every tick of every chase**. A mounted player trivially opens 17 tiles at a corner, the monster guards, Guard nulls the combatant, and re-acquisition is LOS-gated — unrecoverable through a wall. Movement now reports failure only on genuine failure (no step taken with no working path, or approach give-up). ArcherAI's equivalent clause moves to the hard leash.
2. **Last-known-position pursuit** — while a combatant is in LOS its position is recorded each think tick. When the target vanishes (corner, hiding, recall), the creature walks to the last-seen spot, stands guard there ~10s (restoring RunUO's guard grace, which had decayed to a single tick since #2246), and **re-engages instantly** if the same target re-enters view — bypassing the 10s reacquire throttle.
3. **`ChaseLeashRange`** — new virtual on BaseCreature (default `RangePerception * 2` = 32 tiles) replaces the inline `RangePerception * 3` (48) in Melee/Mage/Archer AI. Per-creature tunable via `[props`.
4. **Group movement demoted to a crowding refinement** — previously any uncontrolled creature with one ally within 8 tiles on the same target used greedy ring-stepping for the *entire* chase, with wall-slides counted as success, never invoking the pathfinder — the "aggroed but won't come around the corner" symptom for spawn groups. It now engages only near the target when allies actually contest the ring, and blocked/wall-slid steps escalate to the pathfinding approach primitive.
5. **Mages close distance on broken LOS** — a mage within casting range but LOS-blocked by geometry stood at the wall holding a spell target until the 60s combatant expiry (ProcessTarget short-circuits Think and its RunTo stands off at RangeFight). Geometry-blocked mages now close in until LOS returns, both pre-cast and while holding a target. Hidden targets (CanSee) and poison-cure priority unchanged. The new movement contract also stops the constant spurious `OnFailedMove` teleport rolls mid-chase.
6. **Move budget: one actual step per AI tick** — nothing advanced `NextMove` on a normal step (RunUO's `m_NextMove` budget was lost), so code paths attempting several moves in one think tick could cross multiple tiles at once — visible as "warping" when crowded creatures jockey for position. A successful step now consumes a half-step budget (floor 50ms): blocks intra-tick double moves, stays safely below the timer interval so legitimate next-tick moves are never jitter-throttled, and does not reintroduce `TransformMoveDelay` inflation. Blocked attempts consume nothing, so retry ladders (repath-and-step, the collision fan) are unaffected. `CanMoveNow` is also wraparound-safe now.
### Reference behavior
RunUO requires LOS to *acquire* a target and to *land* a hit or spell — never to *continue* a chase (its MeleeAI LOS bail-out is literally commented out in stock code). Chases drop only on: target hidden, target dead/off-map, beyond `RangePerception * 3`, 60s without combat interaction, or blocked movement while far away. This PR restores those semantics while adding the last-known-position investigation on top. NPC run flags are untouched — pace is AI-timer-driven and most NPC art has no run animation.
### Summary
* Refactors AI so it is easier to read and maintain
* Fixes NPC speed issues
* Fixes pet sector AI issue that was causing stuttering
* Fixes direction snapping for Melee/Mage AI
* Refactors pet orders
* Refactors speech commands
* Removes scale speed by dex for HS+ (it was a stupid feature anyways)
### Summary
- Drastically streamlines the spell targeting by collapsing the target classes into a single `SpellTarget<T>` class.
- Moves TargetRange to the spell itself so it can be used by MageAI.
- Changes range check in MageAI to use TargetRange. This should fix target acquisition bugs

> Please read through these changes, as they changed certain expectations for how the internal AI thinking/movement work.
> Note that some mobs still don't have smooth movement on ClassicUO due to how the client handles animations/movement.
### Summary
- **Important Change**: Mobs will now move at a more regular pace. If the OnThink results in a move, but the cooldown would otherwise prevent the move, then the movement is scheduled on another timer.
- Added a 400ms delay to mobs turning to face a player to attack in order to avoid glitching between moving and turning.
- Reverted AI thinking speeds back to RunUO specific speeds.
- Reverted the AI thinking to moving conversion delays back to RunUO.
- For thinking speeds that are not exactly the predefined speeds from RunUO, there is a new calculation to determine the correct conversion to movement speed. This stops speeds like `0.35` from being faster than `0.3`
> [!NOTE]
> **Developer Note**
> BaseAI.CheckMove() no longer contains the check for whether or not a mob is on movement cooldown. This function can now be overwritten without causing issues to figuring out that cooldown.
### Summary
- Fixes crash bugs with combatant checks in AI
- Fixes mobs not facing each other while in combat. (Old RunUO bug)
- Fixes predators not actually going into guard when their combatant dies.
- Adds missing checks for combatant in various AI.
