    Default DDTM Question

    I've noticed that the mainpoint is repeated as the first subpoint, does this mean that the mainpoint is not used when finding the DTM? I'm curious because having too many points slows DTM finding down and also causes my DDTMs to produce errors sometimes. Does the DTM finding all the subpoints from the mainpoint, or does it find all the subpoints from each other? I've noticed that having smaller distances from in which the points are to each other helps, probably due to it having to search less possibilities due to it searching less possible point locations.

    Thanks!

    Thats a bug in Nielsie's DDTM writer. Thats why, most people don't notice.

    Don't use the subpoint if its the same as the main.

    But you are right in your other points, less search area means faster. Smaller it is in physical size (Point distances) the faster it should be, theoretically.

    If it goes faster due to smaller size then does it matter where the mainpoint is? Does it search for the mainpoint or get the location of subpoint 1 and then caculate the position after?

    Thanks
