What this procedures does, is:

1) It starts by turning the minimap east.
2) It turns MM against north (but not completely).
3) It does a serie of small right-arrow-clicks (undetectable, of course)
until it finds a dtm of a line (from a house, preferably), somewhere near the middle of the minimap

So, it doesn't just set the minimap-MARK at north, but the minimap itself.

I just need a few people to run this, so I know if this works for others, and then I need them to tell me how it went :P

If you're willing to spend those 2 minutes for me, I'll thank you a lot :D

Here it is:

Procedure MMNorth100;
var
 Line,a,b,I: Integer;
 E: Extended;
begin
  Line := DTMFromString('78DA632C656260706140012FBEBF651001D28' +
       'C503E23488D3B116A3CA9A4C6990835DE44A8F1C5ADE63F100000' +
       '9B301D64');
  MakeCompass('E')
  Wait(500+random(500))
  SendArrowWait(1,620+random(80))
  repeat
    SendArrowWait(1,30+random(20))
    Wait(100+random(400))
    I:= I + 1;
  until FindDTMRotated(Line,a,b,620,49,662,98,0,0,0.01,E) or (I = 10)
  SendArrowWait(1,30+random(20))
  FreeDTM(Line)
end;

Will test right now. Could prove to be extremely useful.

Unfortunately, it doesnt work. It's around 92-95 percent I'd say, but definately not perfect :p

I had the exact same idea as you a short while ago, attempted it but never seemed to get perfect. Like yours xD

ill try it when i get time, i need to study for a test and then go to bed.

looks nice though, good idea

I always thought about this. Im gonna test it and play with it. Ill let ya know:D

Always wondered if you could do this. I'm happy to test, but I'm going to bed now. I'll post results tomorrow if I remember.

Tested it, nearly there not so 99% tho. It failed the first time and left it kinda north east ish. But 2nd attempt left it very close to north, 96-97% ?:P

Sorry, I don't play runescape much. Can you please explain more about what this does?

Umm for me "MakeCompass('n') " makes it perfect north?

Thanks for the results everybody, but maybe 99 percent is a minor exaggeration :P

It has worked about 97% for me each time though.

n3s: There is a random rotation on the minimap. This procedure sets the minimap to north, not just the compass. From my.. eh.. research, the compass can be off by around 20 degrees.

-Knives

Yes, but it sets the MINIMAP to north!

No, that's the compass :D

-Knives

First two times I tried it, it didn't work that well. This last one was perfect :)

*Tests again*

Yech, that one was terrible :| Got it all north-westish…

Kk, even more westish…

Safe to say, it's not perfect, but it is a good idea :)

Fucking christ…Those results suck! I guess it's my bad :P

Remember, this works only if youre close to a buildings wall. I used it in fally west bank - nearly flawless.

Thanks for the results, people.

-Knives

Great idea I hope you get it better…Sadly I can't test it :(. Maybe you can try testing it in other areas and trying out a few more things?

How about using ScarScape? :rolleyes:

How about you decrease the area size of the DTM points so it doesn't get off so much? HMM?

The areasizes are the usual 1 pixel… If you mean less points in the DTM, then I say no. I tried that, and it found it after 1 click, so the MM would be set to North-west instead.

-Knives

works pretty good in Ak…

@ Varrock East Mine, it got it 99% perfect two out of 3 times. The other time was, maybe around 96%, 97%-ish

You could, find the line color on the minimap using a tol, then using a find pixel -1, +1 find the number of dots on the line, adn then repeat turning until thye all line up…

It seemed to be working, is it ok if i use it in my script?

Yea, just remember to credit me :D

% of working?

Because then it can't be used in legit. I use KYAB and that uses legit colours (Hopefully not for long though O.o).

You could make an an alt one for ScarScape though, it is a good idea.

I tried it in the varrock general store, worked perfectly.
Then I walked out to the fountain area, failed all 4 times.
Then I walked a bit more north to the guard path thing, worked two of two times.

Maybe you should make the DTM smaller so it can work in some more places :)

make it search for a smaller area then check further on the same y axis for a little more accuracy, if none the F8ck that noise XD

Hey Knives could I add this to the PH include please?

Of course :D

-Knives

Sweet thanks!

worked great but not perfect.

Busted!

Ow noo ur kidding me -.-" sry

Edit: Wait.. it wassent me! :D

Nice, but I prefer the one by XcanadamanX as it doesn't have to waste time turning to east first, which is going to be kinda noticed by jagex if repeated as much as I use his one lol. Nice work anyway.
