Variable changing from other script does not work.
Good time of day to everybody. Currently, I am making a little strategy game in which you can select and command units. I have written a little script for selecting units on the gamefield. However, as is with any script that I write on my own, it does not work. It should work but it has two problems: 1. It does not recognize the isSeleted bool 2. It throws in this error "Expression denotes a method group, where a variable, value or type was expected." Here is my code:
void Update () {
units = GameObject.FindGameObjectsWithTag ("Unit");
if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown (0)) {
RaycastHit2D hit = Physics2D.Raycast (transform.position, Input.mousePosition);
if (hit != null && hit.collider != null) {
hit.transform.GetComponent<ShipAI>.isSelected = true;
}
}
}
Here is the script I am trying to access:
void Update (){
if (isSelected) {
Debug.Log ("I am the chosen one!");
}
}
hit.transform.GetComponent<ShipAI>.isSelected = true;
Should be:
hit.transform.GetComponent<ShipAI>().isSelected = true;
In order for this to work, the class "ShipAI" must also have a public variable "isSelected".
Thank you for your response. I have applied your solution, the error went away, however I still do not receiving the "I am the chosen one!" Debug.Log message.
