Question by smirlianos · Dec 17, 2012 at 07:29 PM · variablesaccessothercharactermotor

Why i can not access these variables?

I have these lines in a script

 var varscript : CharacterMotor;
 
 function OnTriggerStay (other : Collider) {
 varscript.maxForwardSpeed --;
 varscript.maxSidewaysSpeed --;
 varscript.maxBackwardsSpeed --;
 
 }

that access the variables from the CharacterMotor.js But it gives me this error.

Expression 'self.varscript.maxForwardSpeed' cannot be assigned to.

What daoes the "self" mean? I don't understand

Thanks in advance!

if your script is on the same object that your charactermotor is on, maybe try GetComponent() ins$$anonymous$$d of just using a public variable

"self" means "this script". So it says that the variable on "this scripts varscripts maxForwardSpeed" can't be assigned to (written to). This is because it doesn't exist.

It looks like there is no maxForwardSpeed on CharacterMotor. However CharacterMotorMovement has it.

 #pragma strict
 var varscript : CharacterMotor;
 
 function OnTriggerStay (other : Collider) {
     varscript.movement.maxForwardSpeed --;
     varscript.movement.maxSidewaysSpeed --;
     varscript.movement.maxBackwardsSpeed --;
 }
