I have been thinking about an idea for better symbol finding, which consists on replace the bitmaps for color finding and counting lengths. Here it is an example(to find a bank):

Function FindBankMM(Var TP : TPoint): Boolean;
Var
  TPA : TPointArray;
  ATPA : T2DPointArray;
  Box : TBox;
  I, H, Len : Integer;
  X : Extended;
Begin
  FindColorsTolerance(TPA, 2083034, MMX1, MMY1, MMX2, MMY2, 15);
  If Length(TPA) = 0 Then
    Exit;
  ATPA := TPAtoATPA(TPA, 10);
  SortATPAfrom(ATPA, Point(MMCX, MMCY));
  H := High(ATPA);
  For I := 0 To H Do
  Begin
    Box := GetTPABounds(ATPA[I]);
    Len := CountColorTolerance(2083034, Box.X1, Box.Y1, Box.X2, Box.Y2, 15);
    X := Len Div 17;
    If SymbolAccuracy <= X Then
    Begin
      Try
        TP := TPA[0];
      Except 
        Exit;
      End;
      Result := True;
    End;
  End;
End;

It is very effective and fast, while FindSymbol takes between 150-200 ms finding a symbol this function takes between 0-15 milliseconds.

looks nice. Would need to make it more general, meaning you'll need a couple of extra vars and a case in there.

also, no use for this:

 TP := TPA[Low(TPA)];

TPA is dynamic, and therefore Low(TPA) will always be 0. might as well save some time ;)

does it ever get confused with bankers / other NPCs on minimap?

does anyone know of anything yellow in RS which might make this functon fail?

Ok I will change the Low(TPA) for 0, and I have tested it using DebugTPA and it hasn't confused with anything yet.

Great idea, i use symbols very much for walking =) And sometimes it really is annoying when it takes a little bit more time than it should =)

Biggest thing.
