Anyone interested in adding names, giving feedback, improving the following?

package com.runemate.geashawscripts.LazyChaosDruids.Tasks;

import com.runemate.game.api.hybrid.entities.Npc;
import com.runemate.game.api.hybrid.region.Npcs;
import com.runemate.game.api.script.Execution;
import com.runemate.game.api.script.framework.task.Task;

/**
 * Created by Geashaw on 18-2-2015.
 */
public class DismissTask extends Task {

    @Override
    public boolean validate() {
        Npc random = Npcs.newQuery().names("Genie", "Flippa", "Leo").reachable().results().first();
        return random != null && random.isVisible();
    }

    @Override
    public void execute() {
        Npc random = Npcs.newQuery().names("Genie", "Flippa", "Leo").reachable().results().first();

        if (random != null) {
            if (random.interact("Dismiss")) {
                Execution.delayUntil(() - > !random.isVisible(), 1000, 1500);
            }
        }
    }
}

I compiled a list of a few of the Random Event NPCs (found on the wikia page)

private static final String[] RANDOMS = { "Beekeeper", "Capt' Arnav",
            "Niles", "Miles", "Giles", "Sergeant Damien", "Drunken dwarf",
            "Freaky Forester", "Frogs", "Prince", "Princess", "Genie",
            "Evil Bob", "Servant", "Postie Pete", "Leo", "Jekyll",
            "Mysterious Old Man", "Pillory Guard", "Flippa", "Evil Bob",
            "Quiz Master", "Rick Turpentine", "Sandwich lady",
            "Security Guard", "Strange plant", "Mr. Morduat" };

Then I just replaced your method of getting the nearest random NPC with

Npc random = Npcs.newQuery().names(RANDOMS)
                .reachable().results().first();

Whydon't you just query the action "Dismiss" and the dialog containing your name?

How to handle randoms 101:
* Get all npcs
* Filter based on name
* Filter based on interacting with local player
* Interact with it

I never thought about that, it's a great idea and certainly better than maintaining a large list of npcs.

Sure it is, unless there are other npcs which might have the option to dismiss them, but i don't think so...
