Bug & Question:
I use a lot of code that looks somewhat like this:

if (!BankChest.isVisible()) {
Camera.turnTo(BankChest);
Execution.delayUntil(BankChest::isVisible, 100, 5000);
}​

This works great most of the time but I have run into a problem:
When not playing on fixed modus the bot will try to click the object that is behind the mini map and fail. The camera doesn't turn to an angle where it would be visible because it thinks it is already visible and the bot gets stuck.

Ex: if the bot would try to go up the ladder in lumbridge in this situation

Is there any work around to force the movement of the camera to an angle where it is able to interact with the object if the object is behind the mini map?

This is a known problem but there aren't any plans to add a fix for it as I hear it would be too heavy.

You can fix this by adding code to your bot to turn the camera when interaction fails, for example:

if (entity.interact("This") {
} else {
Camera.turnTo(entity);
}

Bug - OSRS - Resizeable mode minimap can cover Entities and they're still considered visible

Best workaround I've found is to walk towards any entity more than 5 units of distance away from your player, regardless of whether or not the entity is "Visible". This will bring the entity towards the middle of your screen, and out from under the minimap.
 
I tagged you Auxi because your code won't work since the entity is already "Visible"

Edit: Please continue to read the thread entirely.

Please elaborate @Snufalufugus

I use that type of rotating in my interaction class and it helps me get out of every situation where an RS3 interface is covering an entity.

} else if (entity.isVisible()) {
    if (entity.interact(action)) {
        return true;
    } else {
        Camera.concurrentlyTurnTo(entity, Random.nextDouble(0.4, 0.849));
    }

    }

I would say it's probably the random pitch fixing the problem, because AFAIK turning the camera to something already visible won't turn the camera.
 
According to Auxi, Camera.concurrentlyTurnTo(thing) will essentially center the thing on your screen, regardless of whether or not it was originally visible. I'll try it out tonight and report back. This would definitely be better than walking towards the thing.

I'll post what I said to Snufalufugus on slack:

For me it moves the camera to a more appropriate angle eventhough it's already 'visible'. So definitely feel free to try out what I posted earlier

Thanks for the responses! This was my first idea but it seemed a bit messy to solve it that way, will try to solve it now .

I agree it's messy if you put it after every .interact in your code, but in an interaction class it's quite nice.
