Description
searchbert z search:
this version has rudimentary vertical search. it will go upwards as it goes outwards. i'm not sure this is quite right yet, but it does go up in the sky to search also.
[16:41] Eclectic Smythe: ok, Ty, not the full 4096 meters though?
nope. i'm still thinking about a reasonable way to do that.
as it is, it flies off and hits 100 m at the outermost point, but it still leaves a lot of stuff in between uncovered.
i'm thinking maybe the better mode is to have it search a plane at 0, then one at like 80, then 160, etc.
that will leave one with the impression that it's gone off into the wild blue yonder though, especially if it doesn't fill up on matches fast.
i think the next step is maybe to move the config into notecards and to add a menu to select what kind of search it will do. that will make it a lot more usable.
more items for searchbert with z-search...
also add menu.
plus needs number matches chooser.
plus size radius etc choosers.
