How do you find an image that can rotate?

[Kasmember13]

How do I find an image but when its in the game it rotates and hovers up and down. I tried finding the DTM buy I looks like DTMs can't be found if they're rotated.

You can use DTMRotated from SRL or FindDTMRotated from SCAR :)

[Kasmember13]

Nvm I found out how to use it but, It still won't find the Image...

Coconut in that game.

CocoDTM := DTMFromString('78DA631467606090634001D73A2C1974181 91' +

Procedure Findpowerup;

if FindDTMRotated(CocoDTM, x, y, 0, 0, 100, 180, -1, 360, 5, DTMAngle) then
Writeln('I found the DTM.');
end;



begin

Findpowerup;
Setpower;


end.

Your chances at finding something that rotates are pretty slim, even with using a few DTMs and rotating them, or the mordaut random wouldn't be such a problem.
What exactly is it that you need to find?
Your best bet will probably be TPointArrays, but it depends on what you are finding.

If the thing that is rotating is 2d, it's very easy. Using a TPointArray would just be.. stupid.

I'm trying to find the power ups that pop up out of the pipe.

[Baked0420]

FindDtmRotated(.... should work for that, just use a TPA as a back up though

Mind explaining how he would even go about using a TPA..?

[Baked0420]

FindColorsSpiralTolerance(x, y, Coconut, coconutcolor, x1, y1, x2, y2, 5)?

[bullzeye95]

Yeah, but how could he use that to find something that's rotating?

[Baked0420]

it's just finding a color, it doesn't matter if the object is rotating or not, right? how does it rotating mess up finding the color?

[Wizzup?]

Yeah, but how could he use that to find something that's rotating?

Using TPA's for this isn't hard either...

[bullzeye95]

Way harder than it could be.

Wtf are you talking about?
I didn't know if the object was rotating on 1, 2, or 3 axises.
If it is one (just moving around the screen or spinning) then you could use a DTM.
If it is rotating like in the mordaut random, use a TPA.
Otherwise you most likely won't find your object.

You can use a TPA no matter what kind of rotation it is doing though.
So that would be what I would go with, rather than messing with making a DTM and doing the testing to make sure it finds it at all the different angles.

Seriously, do you know what a TPA is?

[bullzeye95]

Wtf are you talking about?
I didn't know if the object was rotating on 1, 2, or 3 axises. I didn't either. I think you misinterpreted the way I said that; I wasn't trying to say that what you said was stupid, but that if it's a rotating 2d object, then using a TPA would be overkill since you could use a DTM instead.


Seriously, do you know what a TPA is?
Yes..

[Baked0420]

it is a 2D object, if you just click on the link real quick and play the game once you'd see, but it does exactly what he says, it moves up and down, and rotates in circles. I would just use a FindDtmRotated, it should find your coconut, so have you made something to find the coconut yet Kasmember?

[Kasmember13]

I decided to use 'FindColorTolerance' It works fine because the colors are such that there is no confusion.

Does anyone have any hit on setting the angle of the cannon before it shoots? The problem is, it needs to find the button that angles the cannon and then from there it needs to adjust according to where it clicked. Idk how to explain it.

I just found out that this wasn't for RuneScape lol.
I clicked on the link and it says I can't connect to play the game though...

K gotchya :)
Just IMO DTMs are more work than TPAs.
Well, as far as RuneScape.
I can't take a look at this game though.
