structure node

function bfs(node start_position)
add start_position to the queue
while the queue is not empty
pop a node off the queue, call it "item"
color item on the graph // make sure we don't search it again
generate the 8 successors to item
set the parent of each successor to "item" // this is so we can backtrack our final solution
for each successor
if the successor is the goal node, end the search
else, push it to the back of the queue // So we can search this node
end
end
if we have a goal node, look at its ancestry to find the path (node->parent->parent->parent..., etc)
if not, the queue was empty and we didn't find a path :^\
