Set Marker

On runescape if you open the world map you can set a marker, like it guilds you to where you set it to. When your far away it has a blue arrow pointing to where to go, which could be used by scripts for walking, like if it is a straight path.

And also, when you get to the marker, it doesn't go away, so you can set it once and leave it on for the whole script, and also, the marker goes on the main screen too. So lets say you need to find a ladder, you can find the color of the arrow, and just like make a TPA around the arrow to really narrow down the search for the ladder. It blinks just like the old tutorial island.

Minimap walking


To set a marker you open the world map, and double click where ever you want it. ( you may have to go into that settings drop down menu or whatever.)

I think it only shows in a straight line, so idk how that will work to well

I wouldn't use it as a walking method but maybe as a… "save me i'm lost" solution.

If an account gets lost, and your script notices it, and you have a function like "SetMarker[location here]", then it could try to walk back to the location you've scripted the function to put the marker on, preferably a bank or something, or somewhere easy to walk to.

This is basically what my World Walker does…. without double-clicking the world map though (Setting the marker)

Well for smaller walks it could work, but this could work as a last result if the script is lost.
