I was not exactly sure where to post this, so I just posted it here. We need a method to detect the bubbly rock while mining. I'm not sure if the pick head still flies off. If it does we need a method to detect that to.

Any code or ideas are appreciated. Discuss!

EDIT: I believe speedster has a solution for exploding rock now

Maybe look for the color of the steam? Or wait until we have anti-randoms.

If I remember correctly we used to use pixelshifting to do this. Maybe combined with some other methods.

Whatever it is we need to redevelop these methods. I'm not exactly an avid programmer. I have writtend a few working scripts, so I personally will be forced to wait it out on this one, but anyone else needs to pitch in what they can!

is it possible to get colors from a screenshot? or do the colors change?

It would have to be a screenshot with no loss or compression, basically a bitmap.
Well, technically it would be possible to get the colors of course, but if you want it ultra accurate a bitmap is probably your best choice.

I'm I'm not wrong the screenshot button defaults a bitmap, you would have to paste it into photoshop and go from there.

Just screenshot and save as a .png for no distortion
