Question by Usercreatedname · Jun 23, 2018 at 08:35 PM · error messagescripting beginnermonobehaviour

"The script needs to derive from Monobehavior","The script needs to derive from Monobehaviour"

I'm pretty new to both C# and Unity so I'm having a little difficulty with this code. Every time I try to add my script to an object I keep getting the "script needs to derive from monobehaviour" error. The class name and file names are the same also the Monobehavior line is added after the class name. Any help would be appreciated!

Here is the code:

using UnityEngine;

using System.Collections;

public class Touch : MonoBehaviour {

private Controls player;

 void Start()
 {
     player = FindObjectOfType<Controls>();
 }

 public void LeftArrow()
 {
     player.moveright = false;
     player.moveleft = true;
 }
 public void RightArrow()
 {
     player.moveright = true;
     player.moveleft = false;
 }
 public void ReleaseLeftArrow()
 {
     player.moveleft = false;
 }
 public void ReleaseRightArrow()
 {
     player.moveright = false;

 }

} ,I'm pretty new to both C# and Unity but when I try to add my script to an object I keep getting the "script needs to derive from monobehaviour" error. The class and the file are named the same thing and I have the Monobehavior line directly linked after the class name.

Here's the code:

using UnityEngine; using System.Collections;

public class Touch : MonoBehaviour

{ private Controls player;

 void Start()
 {
     player = FindObjectOfType<Controls>();
 }

 public void LeftArrow()
 {
     player.moveright = false;
     player.moveleft = true;
 }
 public void RightArrow()
 {
     player.moveright = true;
     player.moveleft = false;
 }
 public void ReleaseLeftArrow()
 {
     player.moveleft = false;
 }
 public void ReleaseRightArrow()
 {
     player.moveright = false;

 }

}

Have you tried to:

  • Copy the content of the script

  • delete the file

  • recreate the file

  • paste the code into the new file

Yes, I did that. I even tried to attach a new script directly to the object and copy the code over to it with the same error.

Touch is already the name of a struct in Unity. You need to name it something else.
