/**
 * THE DROVE (Saltgrass Downs, 2026-10-18; saltgrassDowns.ts has the place). Six ewes out of a high pasture pen, walked along the drove road to the
 * Riversend Fold in about three minutes, with wolves and rustlers harrying the flock. It reuses what the game already has:
 *
 *   - Hog Wild's pet and Nye's led ewe: the animals follow YOU, on their own pace, by the trail you walk (so they can never be led through a wall);
 *   - the Brindlecross sheep fold: the destination, a fenced fold, here with a Count Board;
 *   - the Timber Convoy's server-driven tame creatures (`sheep` NPCs the server walks) and its ambush wolves (a creature that goes for the thing you
 *     escort, not for you, until you hit it).
 *
 * Rules (all pure here, the backend's saltgrassDrove.ts runs them):
 *   - a pen gate opens only when you have no flock out, are alive, are not in a fight and are NOT inside the cooldown after your last PAID drove;
 *   - the flock walks DROVE_SHEEP_SPEED tiles a second behind you, DROVE_GAP tiles of your trail apart. You walk faster (3.9, running 5.85) so you
 *     wait for them; a ewe more than DROVE_STRAY_TILES from you for DROVE_STRAY_MS bolts and is lost; a flock more than DROVE_ABANDON_TILES away, a
 *     teleport, a death, a logout or DROVE_MAX_MS ends the drove;
 *   - two ambushes cut in on the road (a wolf at the gorse edge, a rustler at the salt pans). An ambusher goes for the nearest ewe that no player is
 *     within DROVE_GUARD_TILES of; a ewe it stands beside for DROVE_HARRY_MS is lost. Hit it and it turns on you and lets the flock go;
 *   - the Count Board at the fold tallies the ewes at the fold and pays: coins and wool for each, a bonus for all six, a bonus inside the par time.
 *     Nothing in it heals. Rewards are placeholders for the balance pass.
