Is there a way to listen to NPC yells that are not visible in the chatbox? For example, the messages by random event NPCs or cows saying 'Moo'?

 

onMessage() only works if the message is shown in the ingame chatbox.

 

Thanks.

Don't honestly know.

But i'd assume something like this.

 npcs.closest(new Filter<NPC>() {
                        @Override
                        public boolean match(NPC npc) {
                            return npc.getHeadMessage().equals("YOLO!") && npc.getRecentMessages().contains("YOLO!");
                        }
                    });

                        }
                    });

You clearly know what you're doing. 

 

Somehow I had missed the getHeadMessage() API. It returns null when there's no head message so one null check needs to be added and I didn't need the recent messages myself. But essentially solved my problem, thanks!
