It just clicks towards the point you want to walk, without a path. So I'd say its good for short walk, not for a long one.

If you know how to use sps_walkpath, then you won't be needing a tutorial for blindwalk.
In walkpath, you use an array of TPoint, in blindwalk, you only need one point and use the last TPoint in the array you used in walkpath.

Well, the only tutorial I know of SPS walking, blindwalk function is not in the tutorial though.

blind walk is useful for location where a reliable map doesn't exisit. Its pretty reliable assume you don't run into randoms.


You can use it as long as you can check your location (whether your at the starting point or end point) and then it should be good.

Would it be good for the wilderness?

Not really mate, its more like for walking from 1 point of dungeon to another.


I'll try to simplify it:

Blind walk is for walking in an location that you can firmly detect the start or end (or any point between).

For example if start or end of the dungeon has a ladder, and the entire dungeon has a brown color floor, then blind walk could be used.
