Problem getting GetComponent to work
hello, i just had a quick question. i am trying to access a variable from a script attached to my main camera here is the code.
Camera.main.GetComponent<camera>().target = myship.transform;
i have tried multiple different ways and it still comes up with this error.
Assets/Scripts/NetworkManager.cs(25,42): error CS0246: The type or namespace name `camera' could not be found. Are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?
can someone tell me what i am doing wrong.
thank you, mewhy
Is your script named "camera"? The name of the script needs to be inside the angle brackets.
If it's the unity Camera component you're trying to access, it has a capital 'C'.
try this
if u have a gameobject named "Camera" and script named "camera"
GameObject MyCamera = GameObject.Find ("Camera"); //fetch the object
if (MyCamera==null) print ("Could not find the object Camera");
camera cameraScript = MyCamera.GetComponent<camera>(); // this is mainly to check what is your problem
if (camera==null) print ("Cant find my script camera"); // use this line OR the next line
MyCamera.GetComponent<camera>().target = myship.transform; // or use this line this is your line
// camera.target = myship.transform // if you have the script like here in this exmaple.
after this you should be able to understand where is your problem. good luck.
Thanks $$anonymous$$ronos312, the only problem is it comes up with the compile error Before i can print anything to the console. it is kinda weird. do you think you could give me a JS version of this so i can see if that is the problem?
Ok I converted this into JS just to test it and my problem is that it cannot find the script named camera. could someone help me out?
