Question by MOJAJA · Nov 05, 2019 at 06:34 AM · sprite scriptableobject resources quiz

ScriptableObject , use Resources.Load sprite then it have error.

Hi all, I'm making quiz game with Image.

I create the ScriptableObject in "Resources" folder.

My anserButton is a prefab , so I use resources.load to get the scriptableObject. And everything is ok , when I want it to change sprite , it can't work. I don't know where do I missing.

 using System.Collections;
 using System.Collections.Generic;
 using UnityEngine;
 
 [CreateAssetMenu(fileName ="SaveImage",menuName = "SaveImageSetting")]
 public class QuestionImage : ScriptableObject
 {
     public Sprite image;
 
 }

AnsButton.cs

     public Image image;
 
     public QuestionImage loadImage;    ///First,this is null
 
     void Start()
     {
         
         loadImage = (QuestionImage)Resources.Load("" + answerText.text + "", typeof(QuestionImage));
     }
 
     public void Setup(AnsData data)    
     {
         ansData = data;
         answerText.text = ansData.ansText;
         gameObject.GetComponent<Image>().sprite = answerColor[0];
         isCorrect = ansData.isCorrect;
         gameObject.GetComponent<Button>().interactable = true;
         if (PlayerPrefs.GetString("NowScene") == "Game3")
         {
             image.enabled = true;
             image.sprite = loadImage.image;      ///the error is here,but I don't know why.
         }
     }

Are you sure the resource exists and is correctly located at the given path? Note that it needs to be in a "Resources" folder to work correctly.
Is it possible that the "Setup" function is called before the Start function? If you call it from an "Awake" function or the "Start" function of another script, it's possible that the Start function from this script is not called yet, and loadImage is still null.
