Useless Vars.

Everytime i use FindColorTolerance i need to enter two vars, it's common in most functions! But what if i only use these functions to check if something is there?.

Then i need to declare 2 pointless vars everytime, which can be avoided! How?

Make 2 Global vars in SRL, WasteX, WasteY (Not the best names).

This is something ive been thinking about since i started scripting, i think some of you have come across this before aswell.

That's why i need you to vote, Needed or not?

Not really needed.
You see, if you declare two variables locally inside a procedure/function, they are freed once you exit out of that proc/function. If you declare those two vars globally, they would go against their purpose. (In what you're trying to achieve here atleast..)

Global Variables used to be in SRL. They have been taken out because they are generally a pain to work with. Especially if you want to find out what bugs, and where.

Yeah no to this. Its not hard to declare a couple local variables.

Heck no. Making a global variable just for the purpose of storing waste data is a waist. It takes one variable to take care of all your waist values, I think your script can handle that.

SRL used to have global X and Y vars…among other things. Pretty darn annoying.

Wouldn't that take up more memory than having a local variable?

I think all people above me explained it well.
