Hi!

Your code looks perfectly fine, almost, you should not set "id of the enemy" as the name for your observer (it is probably not hurting anything but...). 
{code()}
IUT2004Observer obs = new UT2004ObserverRunner(new UT2004ObserverFactory(new UT2004ObserverModule()), "Observer" + enemy.getId().getStringId()).startAgent();
{code}
... should be more suitable.

Also [lease not that we have not used UT2004Observer too much yet so it is possible for you to stumble upon a few bugs.

I fear that this will be the case of "BotDamaged" event - I will check it out.

But regarding NavPoints, I might have a solution. The trick is, that Observer Connection (i.e., port 3002 of GameBots2004) is not exporting all navpoints and items automatically.
But there are commands which enforce GameBots2004 to do so.

The trick is, that this exports will take some time to process, so you will have to wait for that. That's where WorldEventFuture will come in hand.

So I would suggest you to:

{code()}
WorldEventFuture latch = new WorldEventFuture(obs.getWorldView(), NavPointListEnd.class);
obs.getAct().act(new GetAllInventories());
obs.getAct().act(new GetAllNavPoints());
latch.get(); // will block, until all items / navpoints are exported
{code}

After that, all Items/Navpoints should be accessible inside obs.getWorldView() as usual for the bot.

Does it help?
