[Null pointer on getNpcs]

I know I am rezzing a dead thread, but I just ran into the same issue that the original poster showed, yet all responses missed.

The dairy cow has a name (via getName()) of "", and all 4 of it's actions from getAction() is null.

I was able to test this by going right next to the dairy cow and using the following code:

List<NPC> all = getNpcs().getAll();
for (int i=0;i<all.size();i++){
    clog("Npc " + i + ": " + all.get(i).getName() + ", actions : " + stringArrayToString(all.get(i).getActions()),2);
}

List<NPC> all = getNpcs().getAll();
for (int i=0;i<all.size();i++){
	log("Npc " + i + ": " + all.get(i).getName() + ", actions : " + stringArrayToString(all.get(i).getActions()));
}
                                
                                
protected String stringArrayToString(String [] arr){
        String str = "";
        for (String a:arr){
            str = str + a;
        }
        return str;
    }

 

Forgot to post the output:
