Screen checks

User Interface

The screen-check configurator has its own section in the settings menu and contains the following settings/information:

• help button (?) with information on how pixel-checks work and why they sometimes need to be recalibrated

• list of implemented pixel-checks and image-checks:

  • long-clicking an underlined name will show information and calibration-instructions

  • left-clicking the button will perform a manual screen-check; this is for checking whether saved screen-data is still up to date

  • right-clicking the button will (re)calibrate the specific screen-check

• button to open the image folder

  • only needed on systems running a Windows version older than 10, where screen-capping has to be done manually

Usage

• this is primarily a trouble-shooting feature which potentially enables the user to fix script-incompatibilities after game-updates on their own without having to wait for me to release an update

• this is also where screen-checks will be calibrated the first time after being implemented

  • script-users during archnemesis had to do this when starting the script for the first time (open arch-inventory and press 7)
    

Remarks

• screen-checks are very useful for because they enable me to make the script more responsive and easier to use (they take away the need to toggle certain interface-elements)

• they also make the concept of the omni-key possible by contextualizing its usage

• giving the user the ability to calibrate and verify pixel-checks manually is mandatory because game-updates sometimes change UI textures, which necessitates updating pixel-check values
