Comment (by slabbe):

 As of now, the node structure is:

 {{{
 #Node structure
 cdef struct Node:
     int node_number
     int node_id
     Node* parent
     Node** children
     Node** neighbors
     int* coords
     int visited
 }}}

 I believe it could be simplified. For example, I believe {{{node_id}}} is
 unused by the important 4 functions. Also {{{node_number}}} and
 {{{visited}}} are used by distinct functions. So, they could be merged
 into one {{{int data}}} which could do both job.

 Moreover, I thought the coords were not necessary inside the node as we
 can find them from the data structure. Hence, a simplified node structure
 could be :

 {{{
 #Node structure
 cdef struct Node:
     Node* parent
     Node** children
     Node** neighbors
     int data
 }}}

 What do you think?
