Question by Ambrose998800 · Sep 06, 2015 at 12:38 AM · javascript nullreferenceexception string

A certain string is causing trouble! (Javascript)

I've the strange problem, that a certein String is causing trouble when it is called from another script.

If it is called by: if (StoredObject.GetComponent(ItemDefinition).ItemPurpose == "Cooking"){

and the string is: ItemPurpose == "Cooking" => game crashs with "NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object"

Is it called by: if (StoredObject.GetComponent(ItemDefinition).ItemPurpose == "Tank"){

and the string is changed (in the same script) to: ItemPurpose == "Tank" => it works!

All scripts are attached where they should, it worked bevore correctly, i didn't changed anything! I've tried "Sync MonoDeveloop Project" and "Break Prefab Instance", also creating the Object new from scratch. What to do?

EDIT: I've tried to call the same string from the same object with the same command line from another script. Works!

I hope someone's know anything...
