Altering Character Motor max speeds from script

Hi,

I have a series of effects I want to apply to the player that effects their movement speed.

Ideally I want to change the maxFowardSpeed, maxSidewaysSpeed, and maxBackwardsSpeed fields from another script. I have tried using GetComponent<CharacterMotor>() to no avail, and I don't understand how to utilize the MaxSpeedInDirection function.

Is there a way to achieve these speed changing effects?

Thanks, Tuck
