How to check if Entity WILL be visible from specified position with specified camera angles?

[darkxor]

I want to make function with following signature:

boolean willBeVisible(Entity entity, int cameraX, int cameraY, int yew, int pitch)

or if camera finished moving to reflect player position change: boolean willBeVisible(Entity entity, Position playerPos, int yew, int pitch)

Any ideas where can i take Entity transform into camera space code snippet or how can use OSBot API to achieve this?

Why would you want this? For what specific scenario?

I'm struggling to understand what you're asking; Do you mean you want to check if the entity is visible when the camera is at a certain yaw/pitch/angle, in relativity to the player?

Yeah, like this. But in addition - if player will be in different location.

For example, to be able detect will be Entity visible after camera movement finish / bot finish walking to destination position or need continue moving towards Entity (do one more click on minimap/tile) so Entity become visible.

I don't script but wouldn't something like isClickable() work? and isn't something like that on the API?

I've looked through the game client a while back and the issue always seems to be height. I did find something useful a while back that helped us with certain visibility checks, but models are a bit tricky. Try playing around with pitch, tile height, and model height.
