I don’t really need it, but is there a way to replace a large test number with a built-in GDscript infinite value
var lowestGoalDistance = 10000000000000
var closestGoal
for fG in foundGoals:
if fG.distance_to(start) < lowestGoalDistance:
lowestGoalDistance = fG.distance_to(start)
closestGoal = fG
goal = closestGoal

AFAIK, such values aren’t defined anywhere in the code.
I used these two values myself
const PositiveInfinity = 3.402823e+38
const NegativeInfinity = -2.802597e-45
They seem to work alright in my own scripts, and GDScript seems to parse them alright.
If anyone knows this to be wrong, please say so.
Can I ask how does that work?

Now there is INF (and -INF)

Build v3.1.1
INF = 1. #INFA positive infinity. (For negative infinity, use -INF).
NAN = 1. #QNANMacro constant that expands to an expression of type float that represents a NaN.
The NaN values are used to identify undefined or non-representable values for floating-point elements, such as the square root of negative numbers or the result of 0/0.
