So, I have a bunch of custom SPS maps...

[KeepBotting]

How would I get my script to intelligently detect which SPS map it is standing in, and move to a point? (The points would be different for each SPS map and for the sake of argument let's say the player just appears in the middle of a random map)

edit: would I be able to combine all the small SPS images onto one large canvas (similiar to essence_mine.png or stronghold_of_security.png)?

Just wrote this off the top of my head.

function CurrentMap(maps: TStringArray): String;
var
  TempMap: String;
  i: Integer
begin
  for i := 0 to length(maps-1) do
  begin
    TempMap := maps[i];
    SetupSPS(3, TempMap);
    if not(SPS_GetMyPos = Point(-1, -1)) then
    begin
      result := TempMap;
      Exit;
    end;
  end;
end;

like a boss.

ofc there's probably a compiling error or two in there you'll have to fix.

Yes. I did all that work for nothing.

I'll try both ways, but I'm a bit confused--I can't completely wrap my head around the idea I had about combining them into one canvas.

Just throw them all into one map. Use MS Paint like a boss. just make sure they're far enough apart from eachother so that they don't interfere with eachother.

Use photoshop and merge them into one picture. A bit of basic Photoshop knowledge should be enough to do this.
@Nebula
I would put them all into one big picture by using photoshop and carefully placing them in the correct spot. Then it could be used in SPS properly.

Then how do I detect which one I am in? And how would I walk in them if they're all in one image?

Okay yes I can see where you would have issues with that. So What I posted would probably work best. I just fixed it for you. Should compile + work file.

function CurrentMap(maps: TStringArray): String;
var
  TempMap: TStringArray;
  i: Integer;
begin
  for i := 0 to length(maps)-1 do
  begin
    SetLength(TempMap, 1);
    TempMap[0] := maps[i];
    SPS_Setup(3, TempMap);
    if not(SPS_GetMyPos = Point(-1, -1)) then
    begin
      result := TempMap[0];
      Exit;
    end;
  end;
end;

end;

I still don't get it <.> what does that do?

EDIT: Sorry, I'm a very visual learner. You have to spoonfeed me once, then I can strike out on my own rather proficiently. I need to understand what that function does, where to put my maps/what params to change, where to put the function itself, and how to call it.

CurrentMap('map1', 'map2', 'map3') would return the map you are currently in. So you could just do SPS_Setup(#, [CurrentMap]) and it would work fine. I hope.

I edited the above post.


So:

function CurrentMap(MY MAPS GO HERE?): String;
var
  TempMap: TStringArray;
  i: Integer;
begin
  for i := 0 to length(maps)-1 do
  begin
    SetLength(TempMap, 1);
    TempMap[1] := maps[i];
    SPS_Setup(3, TempMap);
    if not(SPS_GetMyPos = Point(-1, -1)) then
    begin
      result := TempMap[1];
      Exit;
    end;
  end;
end;

Do I change anything else?

Help?

[putonajonny]

function CurrentMap(maps: TStringArray): String;
var
  TempMap: TStringArray;
  i: Integer;
begin
  for i := 0 to length(maps)-1 do
  begin
    SetLength(TempMap, 1);
    TempMap[1] := maps[i];
    SPS_Setup(3, TempMap);
    if(SPS_GetMyPos <> Point(-1, -1)) then
    begin
      result := TempMap[1];
      Exit;
    end;
  end;
end;

Put that in your script with the other functions, then when put somewhere in your script:

WriteLn(CurrentMap(['2_3', '4_4', '3_293']));//put whatever maps you are checking

See if it gets the right one

Why did you change around some of the numbers in it KeepBotting?
Just throw this between one of your functions:

function CurrentMap(maps: TStringArray): String;
var
  TempMap: TStringArray;
  i: Integer;
begin
  for i := 0 to length(maps)-1 do
  begin
    SetLength(TempMap, 1);
    TempMap[0] := maps[i];
    SPS_Setup(0, TempMap);
    if not(SPS_GetMyPos = Point(-1, -1)) then
    begin
      result := TempMap[0];
      Exit;
    end;
  end;
end;

Then call SPS_Setup(0, [CurrentMap]) in your mainloop and it will detect which map you are in. Then just use SPS_BlindWalk to walk to wherever it is you want to go.
