    Default SPS or Radial?

    Which one should I learn first/should be used more?
    Comments explaining why?

    From my time scripting, I know radialwalk better ('cause I never used reflection), but lately SPS seems to be much better and easier for long paths.

    Radialwalk is only so accurate when walking long paths. It sometimes gets confused.

    SPS has a little bit of error (you have to work with it) but it's much simpler and accurate to the map point, similar to reflection.

    All in all, I would learn both. You'll probably want to use both some time when scripting.

    Alright.
    I was using RadialWalk for the long path, but now I think it's best to use SPS for long paths, and RadialWalk just for one point walking.

    IMO anyway.

    I use ObjectDTM's to walk, much easier to utilise in scripts (for me anyway)

    Don't get me wrong, if RadialWalk is working for you, use it. It's pretty good. SPS is just a little bit more accurate.

    SPS works great. Its a bit more accurate only problem is if map isnt perfectly aligned north it misclicks. so Boredhuman antiban doesn't isnt a very good option.

    Both! Or you could use Obj DTM's too as others have suggested--they do well over distances, barring you can find objects to use on the minimap.

    Just double it up. Maybe SPS as main walking method and ObjDTM for failsafe or vice versa? There are many combinations.

    I like SPS for its simplicity, but I never never really looked into radial walking.

    SPS can be finicky though, so using it with findsymbols is what I normally do.

    I couldn't get ObjDTM's to work to save my life, and I'm too lazy to make a LRC map for SPS, so RadialWalk it is. xD

    For LRC, as to what exactly it will do, IDK 0.o

    NKN, There are a few maps released for LRC 0.o Ask one of the owners if you can use one. Also should be one publicly released around here somewhere.

    P.S. I would go with SPS. Radial has a tendency to fail.

    Meh, I like RadialWalk, I use SPS for places where the maps are already made, I guess I might switch my LRC miner script to SPS if I can find a map.

    Both are useful as options, as well as objdtm walking. Everything can be found in the tutorial section, and I know I use a combonation of multiple walking methods in all but the most simple of my scripts.
