help with upgrade system(Getcomponent)
so the general gist of my upgrade system is that ther is a script in my charicter creation screen where you buy items and then it sets a playerpref int then ingame a script checks if its 1 it is onetype of weapon if 2 its another and if 3 it is another again but the problem is is it simply dosent work it takes away money i think it sets the weapon number and it dosent stop shooting script from working. hear is the script that gos onto the customization scene:
 static var cash = 0;
 //var wepno = 0;
 var price =0;
 var price2 =0;
 //static var wep1 = 1;
 //static var wep2 = 0;
 //static var wep3 = 0;
 //static var wep4 = 0;
 //PlayerPrefs.SetInt("Cash",50);
 cash = PlayerPrefs.GetInt("Cash");
 function OnGUI (){
   if (GUI.Button(Rect(10,10,110,30),"ShotGun $50")){
     if (cash > price){
       PlayerPrefs.SetInt("wep",2);
       cash -= price;
       PlayerPrefs.SetInt("Cash",cash);
     }
     print(PlayerPrefs.GetInt("Cash"));
   }
   if (GUI.Button(Rect(10,40,110,30),"GatlingGun $150")){
     if (cash > price2){
       PlayerPrefs.SetInt("wep",3);
       cash -= price2;
       PlayerPrefs.SetInt("Cash",cash);
     }
     print(PlayerPrefs.GetInt("Cash"));
   }
 }
 print(PlayerPrefs.GetInt("Cash"));
and hear is the script that gos on the gun `
 function update (){
   if (PlayerPrefs.GetInt("wep",2)){
     GetComponent("rappidfirescript").enabled = false;
   }
 }

You're using PlayerPrefs.GetInt wrong: GetInt returns the value of the key specified, if it exists, or the default value (second parameter), if not. GetInt does not compare the key value to anything - you must compare its value yourself in the gun script:
 function update (){ // this will disable the script "rapidfirescript" if wep is 2
   if (PlayerPrefs.GetInt("wep",2)==2){
     GetComponent("rappidfirescript").enabled = false;
   }
 }
