I don't know English well and I use a translator and I don't know if this topic has already been discussed somewhere. My question concerns generating pointmaps or scanning points.... In instructional videos it takes a few seconds, for me it takes a very long time, even 2 minutes. Is there something to mark or set somewhere to make it last shorter, because when searching for many variables it takes years

It could be because of 2 things off the top of my head, either:

1 - Your "Max Level", or the number of levels you're scanning through, is high. I have it usually set to the default 7, but going to 8 or higher usually takes exponentially more time in my experience

2 - The game is very large. If you're scanning through a very large game I could imagine it'd take more time scanning through pointers than a simple game


In the end I usually just use and compare Pointermaps when looking for pointers, it takes less time and usually leads to more reliable results
