I was wondering if there is a way to find out how i am being attacked.

For example, when being attacked by say a dragon, i want to be ranging it and praying mage.

How can i see whether my player is fighting it in melee range or ranging range, i looked at the API on Combat and couldn't see anything.

Currently, my only thought was to make a big array of 'safe' tiles and just force the bot to move to one of them.

However, if the player didn't need to move and it moved anyway, i feel that would look bot-like.

Anyway your feedback is appreciated.

Players distance from the dragon?

configs?

I thought of that, was thinking about brutal blues/reds script and you can be 'safespotting' one whilst standing next to another. https://gyazo.com/0f6f6c62c23552d51b6a97c90fe0d089

But the one next to you is not attacking you?
Then it's fine innit

as long as one is hitting you back the other dragon near you cant attack you. just make sure youre out of its melee range. once you kill it move away from the other dragon and attack it

u can get combat styles by configs, or just get the current weapon == blowpipe/crossbow, attackstyle = ranged

He's always using a ranged weapon though. What he asked is what the dragon is using

o

final Player me = myPlayer();
		
		// Get all green dragons that are 'locked' on me
		List<NPC> greenDragonsFocusingOnMe = npcs.getAll().stream()
				.filter(npc -> me.equals(npc.getInteracting()))
				.filter(npc -> npc.getName().equals("Green dragon"))
				.collect(Collectors.toList());
		
		// Get the green dragon I'm locked on
		NPC greenDragonsImFocusedOn = greenDragonsFocusingOnMe.stream()
				.filter(npc -> npc.equals(me.getInteracting()))
				.findFirst()
				.orElse(null);
		
		if (greenDragonsFocusingOnMe != null && !greenDragonsFocusingOnMe.isEmpty()) {
			if (greenDragonsImFocusedOn != null) {
				// wait for dragon to die
				// heal if low on health
			} else {
				// pick one of those dragons that are focused on you
				greenDragonsImFocusedOn = greenDragonsFocusingOnMe.get(0);
				if (greenDragonsImFocusedOn.interact("Attack")) {
					// ... do stuff
				}
			}
		}

One thing I haven't included is the sorting of the green dragons by distance to you. I won't spoon feed you everything.

lol thanks guys :D, this is going to be next weekends project after my uni deadline on Friday
