1728\. Cat and Mouse II

Hard

A game is played by a cat and a mouse named Cat and Mouse.

The environment is represented by a `grid` of size `rows x cols`, where each element is a wall, floor, player (Cat, Mouse), or food.

*   Players are represented by the characters `'C'`(Cat)`,'M'`(Mouse).
*   Floors are represented by the character `'.'` and can be walked on.
*   Walls are represented by the character `'#'` and cannot be walked on.
*   Food is represented by the character `'F'` and can be walked on.
*   There is only one of each character `'C'`, `'M'`, and `'F'` in `grid`.

Mouse and Cat play according to the following rules:

*   Mouse **moves first**, then they take turns to move.
*   During each turn, Cat and Mouse can jump in one of the four directions (left, right, up, down). They cannot jump over the wall nor outside of the `grid`.
*   `catJump, mouseJump` are the maximum lengths Cat and Mouse can jump at a time, respectively. Cat and Mouse can jump less than the maximum length.
*   Staying in the same position is allowed.
*   Mouse can jump over Cat.

The game can end in 4 ways:

*   If Cat occupies the same position as Mouse, Cat wins.
*   If Cat reaches the food first, Cat wins.
*   If Mouse reaches the food first, Mouse wins.
*   If Mouse cannot get to the food within 1000 turns, Cat wins.

Given a `rows x cols` matrix `grid` and two integers `catJump` and `mouseJump`, return `true` _if Mouse can win the game if both Cat and Mouse play optimally, otherwise return_ `false`.

**Example 1:**

![](https://assets.leetcode.com/uploads/2020/09/12/sample_111_1955.png)

**Input:** grid = ["####F","#C...","M...."], catJump = 1, mouseJump = 2

**Output:** true

**Explanation:** Cat cannot catch Mouse on its turn nor can it get the food before Mouse.

**Example 2:**

![](https://assets.leetcode.com/uploads/2020/09/12/sample_2_1955.png)

**Input:** grid = ["M.C...F"], catJump = 1, mouseJump = 4

**Output:** true

**Example 3:**

**Input:** grid = ["M.C...F"], catJump = 1, mouseJump = 3

**Output:** false

**Constraints:**

*   `rows == grid.length`
*   `cols = grid[i].length`
*   `1 <= rows, cols <= 8`
*   `grid[i][j]` consist only of characters `'C'`, `'M'`, `'F'`, `'.'`, and `'#'`.
*   There is only one of each character `'C'`, `'M'`, and `'F'` in `grid`.
*   `1 <= catJump, mouseJump <= 8`
