fallingplatform is the name of the script i wrote this in playerscript is another script

Well, access has not been initialized with any value And does playerscript class even have an isGrounded member? Also, is that Unity?

discountOP•7mo ago

yea and yea its unity

That is a method Methods are called IsGrounded() (they're named with PascalCase too, btw) (just like classes)

ooooh do you know how i can us the method in the other script

Angius•7mo ago

Considering how it's an instance method, you will need an instance of that class If it's in a different namespace, that namespace will need to be imported And, well, the method needs to be called of course .IsGrounded() not .IsGrounded

i have no idea how to do that

Angius•7mo ago

var script = new PlayerScript();
var grounded = script.IsGrounded();

var script = new PlayerScript();
var grounded = script.IsGrounded();

for example

i get an this error twice The contextual keyword 'var' may only appear within a local variable declaration or in script code A field initializer cannot reference the non-static field, method, or property 'fallingplatform.script' i also get this one

The contextual keyword 'var' may only appear within a local variable declaration or in script code Means you can't do

class Foo
{
  var bar = ""; // Compile time error
}

class Foo
{
  var bar = ""; // Compile time error
}

A field initializer cannot reference the non-static field, method, or property 'fallingplatform.script' Means you can't do

class Foo
{
  string val = GetName(); // Compile time error
  string GetName()
  {
    return "John Doe";
  }
}

class Foo
{
  string val = GetName(); // Compile time error
  string GetName()
  {
    return "John Doe";
  }
}
