my whole bot crashes when getting messages is there a way to get the last message only so not the whole array im using this.

else if(api.chatbox.contains(MessageType.ALL, "Welcome to runescape."))

and then i get nulled when someone types a message or when i typ somthing

Option 1: listen for messages

implement this method in your script class, it will be called when there is a new game/player message (see MessageType).
 

public void onMessage(Message m) throws InterruptedException {


}

Option 2: get the widget text directly
(note: this might include color tags like <col=....></col>, use stripFormatting to remove this)

parent widget id = 162, dunno about the child/grandchild id, use the widget debugger
