credits to cruel again, i just converted it to java. Winter break really got me bored, so i'm just converting stuff from language to language .

	public Point FindColorSpiral(Color color, Point StartPoint, Rectangle SearchArea){
		//Credits to Cruel for this, SlashShot only converted it to Java
		try{
			Robot robot = new Robot();
			BufferedImage image = robot.createScreenCapture(SearchArea);
	   	 	int x = (int)StartPoint.getX() - (int)SearchArea.getX();
				int y = (int)StartPoint.getY() - (int)SearchArea.getY();
			int direction = 0, length = 1;
			int rgbcolor = color.getRGB();
			if (rgbcolor == image.getRGB(x, y))
				return new Point((int)SearchArea.getX() + x, (int)SearchArea.getY() + y);
			while ((x > 2) && (y > 2) && (x < SearchArea.getWidth() - 2) && (y < SearchArea.getHeight() - 2)){
				for (int i = 1; i <= length; i++){
					switch(direction){
						case 0 :
							y = y - 1;
							break;
						case 1 : 
							x = x + 1;
							break;
						case 2 : 
			   			 	y = y + 1;
				   	 		break;
						case 3 : 
							x = x - 1;
							break;
					}
					if (rgbcolor == image.getRGB(x, y))
						return new Point((int)SearchArea.getX() + x, (int)SearchArea.getY() + y);
				}	
				direction = (direction + 1) % 4;

					length = length + 1;
