Wargame Map Object shortest path

Hi, I'm in the research phase of starting a new fusion project (strategy rpg). I've made a few games already in the past but this is the first time I'm taking a proper look at the Wargame Map Object, which seemed at first glance as a great starting point since I'm keen on using hexmaps. First hurdle was that the grid was rotated 90 degrees from what I prefer, but with help from an old post from CruddyBuddy I managed to flip it and I thought I had gotten everything properly working as I wanted until I started to notice plotted paths not actually finding the shortest route on open maps (not a lot of obstacles). I even opened one of the examples that come with the object, and after removing a few of the obstacles from the map I can reproduce the (apparent) defect in there as well (see attached screenshot). So my question is; has anyone here any successful experience with the Wargame Map object and am I missing something obvious? Is this a known bug, or any tips on workarounds?
