How can I do this?

So when I do FindDTM or something similar the script will search from top left to bottom right. How can I reverse it so that it searches from bottom right to top left?

Just reverse the search coordinates (I think), so like thisFindDTM(DTM, X, Y, MSX2, MSY2, MSX1, MSY1)

Last I knew that gave an error. Search pattern is internal and can't be changed unless you use a different function or there's a way to change it via another method globally.

Ah fair enough. In that case I guess you could do multiple searches working upwards.
Eg.
FindDTM(DTM, X, Y MSX2-100, MSY2-100, MSX2, MSY2)And increase that 100 in intervals until you find what you want. Could be done easier in an for to do loop or a while do.

Or, is there a way to skip the found DTMs until the last one is reached?

function FindLowDTM(DTM : LongInt, var X : LongInt, var Y : LongInt, XS, YS, XE, YE : LongInt) : Boolean;
var
sX, sY : Integer;

begin
sX:= XS;
sY:= YS;
repeat
if FindDTM(DTM, X, Y, sX, sY, XE, YE) then
begin
Result:= True;
sX:= X;
sY:= Y;
end;
until(not(FindDTM(DTM, X, Y, sX, sY, XE, YE)))
end; ?

Something I just whipped up quickly. Haven't tested it but hopefully it'll work if I've thought it through properly...

It's propably impossible ,but why you want to do this? You can simple use
FindDTMs(); to get coords of all DTMs.

Wow...Didn't even know about FindDTMs.
