Defines the relationship between the horizontal cost factor and the horizontal relative moving angle.

There are several factors with modifiers from which to select that identify a defined horizontal factor graph. Additionally, a table can be used to create a custom graph. The graphs are used to identify the horizontal factor used in calculating the total cost of moving into a neighboring cell.

For each of the factors, a particular selection of characteristic modifiers will apply. See the Horizontal factor additional information section below for specific details on the settings of the factors and how to set the modifiers of the characteristics.

Values: BINARY | FORWARD | LINEAR | INVERSE_LINEAR

Characteristics: Zero factor | Cut angle | Slope | Side value

Syntax: The parameter is a string.
