• I'm learning the different types of script making.
• With this task based script I'm wondering why the <SlapCrabs> task only fights 1 npc then does nothing? ( testing on Highwayman, but the script will eventually be for crabs )

I know that you can use NPC filters and Lambda's ect. But for now I'm just trying to get this task to loop, It's supposed to fight highwaymen, But it only attacks 1 and then doesn't attack anymore after that?

here is the

1. SlapCrabs ( Not looping )
2. Task
3. Main 

Why does it only kill 1 npc then stop? The canProcess() is true so it should attack as long as it's true?

SlapCrabs

package core;
import org.osbot.rs07.api.map.Area;
import org.osbot.rs07.api.model.NPC;
import org.osbot.rs07.script.MethodProvider;


public class SlapCrabs extends Task {
	public SlapCrabs(MethodProvider api) {
		super(api);
	}
	public static Area crabZone = new Area(3013, 3288, 2999, 3270);
	NPC npc = api.getNpcs().closest("Highwayman");
	

	@Override
	public boolean canProcess() {
		return 
		crabZone.contains(api.myPlayer()) && npc.isAttackable();
	}

	@Override
	public void process() {
		npc.interact("Attack");
		api.log("Slappin Crabz'");
	}
}

Task

package core;

import org.osbot.rs07.script.MethodProvider;

public abstract class Task {
	protected MethodProvider api;

	public Task(MethodProvider api) {
		this.api = api;
	}

	public abstract boolean canProcess();

	public abstract void process();
	
	public void run() {
		if (canProcess())
			process();
	}
	
}

It's because you're declaring the Highwayman outside of the run loop, so it essentially only searches once for an available highwayman, move the 
 

NPC npc = api.getNpcs().closest("Highwayman");

into the process method. 

edit: to summarize, the task actually is actually being checked,, but it's only searching for a highwayman when the class is initially loaded, so Npc#isAttackable returns false

Oh my god you're 100% right.

You literally just took so much stress off my mind

Thank You!❤️

In the future, try placing some simple logs in your verify function (canProcess).

For example, in this case simply adding:

If (crabZone.contains(api.myPlayer())

   log("contains")

If (npc.isAttackable())

    log("attackable")

 

Would have greatly limit your bug searching to a specific area of the code and helped you figure out everything faster.

Just some advice
