                          This extension is amazing! I use this all the time in our workflow we have for quickly dispersing trees along terrain. I am having a lot of trouble getting the "Set Random Zone from Image..." function to work. I can select the image, and type in the parameters for centimeters per pixel, etc. but once i select OK the following error message pops up:

                          Error: undefined method 'unpack' for nil:NilClass

                          Is there any way you could help me with this? This extension is amazing, and the function of Set Random Zone from Image would be a giant help to our team. Thanks Samuel!

                            This extension is only compatible with 24-bit BMP images. So be sure to select a 24-bit BMP image...

                                      Thanks for your report! I identified the issue, and it's super easy to fix.
                                      I will push a new version of this extension compatible with SU 2024+.
