Hello all, I am trying to incorporate alching into a script but I can not seem to get it. I am currently using the getMagic().castSpellOnEntity(Spells.NormalSpells.HIGH_LEVEL_ALCHEMY, item); method. 

the "item" is gotten through the inventory like so: Item item = getInventory().getItem("item to alch"); but it says that Item cannot be used as an Entity (even though i looked into the api and it seems like Item extends the Entity class so I thought i would be able to turn an inventory into a useable entity.) 

can anyone guide me in the right direction? should i not use "CastSpellOnEntity" ? thanks

An Item is not an Entity:

Only RS2Objects, Characters, GroundDecoration, GroundItem... etc are

What you should be doing instead is calling the castSpell() method, and then interacting with the appropriate inventory item

if (getMagic().isSpellSelected()) {

getInventory().interact("Cast", "Item");

}

else {

getMagic().castSpell(Spells.NormalSpells._LEVEL_ALCHEMY);

}

 

thanks so much, that cleared up all my problems!
