Question by awplays49 · Nov 29, 2014 at 04:19 PM · referenceflagged-for-delete

Check if a value is null from another script?

I have a public Follower named CurrentFollower located in "OneFollower"

But in the monster script, i need to access whether it is null in an if statement. Plus this script isnt assigned to an object.

I just need this to work without giving me the exception "object reference not set to an instance of an object"

I recommend you to create a new empty-gameobject in the hirarchy and assign the script onto that. Then you will be able to access it from everywhere you want and it is not special for "one" gameobject. That's just for getting rid of that error

The answer is in the question.

You want to check if it is null, damn I just answered again...

 if(reference != null){
    reference.Method();
 }
