What features would you like to see in it?

being able to code and have the DTM editor open at the same time.
Not like in SCAR where you have to close the editor before coding.

definitely what noidea said.

-a button along with "DTM to text", being "DDTM to text"
-so it outputs in the debug box the main points and subpoints.

-Obviously the basics such as being able to save and load the DTM
-in my opinion testing the DTM is optional, since that's easy enough to do without a DTM editor, just load the DTM, search it and free it and you've tested it.

-Able to use printscreens in the DTM editor.

-A magnifying glass to zoom on the image.
-instead of like SCAR's, just a box that zooms around the few pixels radius from your mouse, so this way it's easier to select a specific pixel.


if I can think of anything else I'll be sure to add them :)

hopefully you use some of my ideas

EDIT: apparently you can't put spaces before "-", it's just aligning it left, all the - right underneath one is supposed to be spaced.

Loading images from files or pasting them into the editor would also be nice.

Indeed, I like the puting it into code idea (DDTM)

I think a zoom scroll bar would be cool.

Perhaps a 'Mark All Occurances' would be cool. Just have like a list of functions to try and you can fill in the params. So all of the things in the DTM class.

(D)DTM->Text options

Find all matching DTM's would be cool also.

doesn't it already have finddtms? I thought I saw it in simba but not scar, I don't know, I might be wrong.

EDIT: Under DTM in simba it says there's FindDtms and FindDtmsRotated already

Yes but I just meant implemented inside the editor :)

YESSSSSSSSS! I would love that. I hate how currently I only finds the top-est right-est match, It would be neater if it would mark ALL found DTMs.

NOT points.

Black, black, not black, black, etc.

YoHoJo, it's in Simba already, just not in the DTM editor.

Yes, but it would be great in the editor. We are now talking about the editor.

oh ok, I thought you guys just meant in general. I don't see a need for it in the editor, you can just test it in game with finddtms, I guess it could be useful for saving a tiny bit of time.

True/False option to set some point optional. If not optional and the point doesn't match, it will automatically result false, else it will increment PointsMatching. This would make DTMs work like

if at least points P1, P2 and P3 and at least 2 from points P4, P5, P6 are found, result true, else result false

function FindDTMEx(var X, Y: integer; DTM, X1, Y1, X2, Y2: integer; StartAng, EndAng, AngStep: extended; var PointsMatching: integer): boolean;

function FindDTM(var X, Y: integer; DTM, X1, Y1, X2, Y2: integer): boolean;

E: Ok, this is not exactly related to the editor, but… :rolleyes:
So in the editor I'd like to see mp3-player, videoeditor, screensaver, funny mouse cursors and animated buttons with skeletons and fire stuff

Sounds more like FindPartialDTM to me. :p

I may have suggested and tried to implement my own FindPartialDTM years ago! Man, you guys take a while to catch up.

or they all hate you and disregard all of your works.

I never denied any existence of it. :)

Ability to capture/load/store multiple images and check the DTM across them all at once.

All in one editor…? :cartman:
Don't expect all those features to ship right away… :redface:
