Deling triangle locator:

While running, FF8 Step Triangulator adds a hotkey for Deling. Ctrl+Click on a walkmesth triangle. Script will try to locate the triangle number using a brute-force color match search in that area.

1. Start Deling (tested with v0.12.0) and open the FF8 "field.fs" file located in the directory "\Data\lang-en".
2. Select the Walkmesh tab at the top of Deling.
3. Switch to the Walkmesh tab in the bottom section of Deling to display the Triangles list.
4. Hold Ctrl and Click on one of the lines or intersections of the triangle you want to find.
5. The macro will jump to the last triangle in the list, then scan UP until it (hopefully) finds a pixel of the "selected triangle" color near the mouse.
6. If a colored triangle is located, the triangle number will be added to your FF8 Step Triangulator Triangles list and saved to the clipboard.
