Can't find Dictionary value inside a specific function
I don't know if this is a horrible way of doing things but it has been a fast method that I like. Within my UI root I cache all into dictionaries at Awake that start with a "#" and sometimes "@"
private Dictionary<string, Transform> _ui = new Dictionary<string, Transform>();
void CacheUIandTweens()
{
foreach (Transform child in UIRoot.GetComponentsInChildren<Transform>(true)) //include inactive
{
if (child.name.StartsWith("#"))
{
_ui.Add(child.name.Trim(), child);
}
}
}
This has worked great for the most part but now I'm having trouble accessing a specific value within a function I call after a button press. ( not at start )
The strangest part is that I can get that value in other parts of the code. Any ideas? This is the error:
KeyNotFoundException: The given key was not present in the dictionary.
