Assigning a particle system to a variable
Original scripts Enemy AI http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/92021-Simple-But-Effective-AI-Script-Explained
I can't seem to track down Rob productions, he wrote this script and also 'Invasion of the Trivials'

Anyhoo, I took the player from 'Trivials' and put it in a new project, then made an enemy with the enemymood and enemytarget.js
UnassignedReferenceException: The variable hitParticles of 'enemytarget' has not been assigned. You probably need to assign the hitParticles variable of the enemytarget script in the inspector. enemytarget.Start () (at Assets/Scripts/Mobs/enemytarget.js:35)
I'm not sure how to stick the 'hit' particles prefab (or any other prefab) onto the script, there's nothing available when I try to load it from the menu, I dragged the prefab into the scene, can't drag it onto the Variable. How is this done anyway?
Thanks, Rob Productions, hope you don't mind me copy-pasting, this is one of the few games I can understand at all.

You'll need 'Character Controllers' and 'Particles' packages added from Standard Assets
The variable hitParticles on the enemy script expects a ParticleEmitter, make sure whatever you are trying to drag into that slot has a ParticleEmitter component. It should be that simple.
My guess is you are trying to use the Shuriken particle system (which does not have a 'ParticleEmitter' component). You can either rewrite all instance of hitParticles to use the new particle system or create a particle system the old way. Here is the reference to the Legacy particle system.

@OperationDogBird, I accept your answer. If you get bored, you might want to answer why the bad guy isn't firing at the player, however this doesn't work in the demo 'isolated assault 2', which has the same A.I. I think(no source)
@hike1, You didn't actually accept the answer - you need to click the check box next to the answer to accept it. I have done that for you, but please be courteous in the future.
FYI, if you have a new question, start a new thread for it. It's bad juju (frowned on) around here to start a question in the comments.
