ceN's Coordinate Tracker

This is a coordinate tracker for New World that uses Tesseract.js OCR library built with Node.js and a Powershell script.

This tool does NOT read/write to the games memory.

How it works

1. Node calls the powershell script to capture the players position.
2. Powershell takes the request and captures character position and sends the image bitmap back to node in a memory stream.
3. Node receives the bitmap, runs it through an image filter, then sends the filtered image to Tesseract.
4. Tesseract does its best to parse the numbers from the image and returns it back to node.
5. Node gets the parsed data from Tesseract. If the text is valid, it sends it to clients connected to http://localhost:5000/events via an SSE.
