Accessing Raycast collider from another script
Hey, I'm getting a strange error that happens whenever the Raycast is not colliding.
NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object
OilLamp.Update () (at Assets/Scripts/Pickables/OilLamp.cs:31)
I'm programming a lamp that can be interacted if looking or picked up, where you can turn it on or off, from the player script. The code works fine but I'm having a hard time to make the errors stop.
// Oil Lamp public GameObject _this; private Player player; public bool looking;
void Start()
{
player = GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("Player").GetComponent<Player>();
}
void Update()
{
if (player.itemRayHit.collider.gameObject == _this) // error
{
looking = true;
} else
{
looking = false;
}
}
Thank you!
