Question Can't call a method within an if statement

Hey,
I have the following problem:
My Code looks like this and I'm using the pedometer api (https://github.com/natsuite/NatStep).
If I want to call my "progressbar" from the position where I commented it out, it doesn't work.
It's only working if I call it directly after "stepText.text = loadSteps.ToString();", but the main problem is that "distanceMeterText.text = loadDistance.ToString();" and the other one would not work, when I try to call the method.
The script works fine without the method.

code where i want to call the method:

Code (CSharp):

1. public void OnStep(int steps, double distance)
2.         {
3.             // Display the values    
4.             //stepText.text=steps;
5.  
6.             //adding the new Steps to the old steps
7.  
8.             float distancef = (float)distance;
9.            
10.            
11.             if (loadSteps == steps)
12.             {
13.  
14.                 stepText.text = loadSteps.ToString();
15.  
16.                 distanceMeterText.text = loadDistance.ToString();
17.  
18.                 float loadKM = loadDistance / 1000;
19.                 distanceKMText.text = loadKM.ToString();
20.  
21.                 //progressbar
22.                 //float adderSf = loadSteps;
23.                 //float stepgoalf = stepgoal;
24.                 //circlebar(adderSf, stepgoalf);
25.  
26.             }
27.             else
28.             {
29.                 adderS = loadSteps + steps;
30.  
31.                 stepText.text = adderS.ToString();
32.                 SaveVarInt(adderS);
33.  
34.                    
35.                 float adderD = loadDistance + distancef;
36.                 distanceMeterText.text = adderD.ToString();
37.                 SaveVarFloat(adderD);
38.  
39.                 float adderKM = adderD / 1000;
40.                 distanceKMText.text = adderKM.ToString();
41.  
42.                 //progressbar
43.                 //float adderSf = adderS;
44.                 //float stepgoalf = stepgoal;
45.                 //circlebar(adderSf, stepgoalf);
46.             }
47.      }

circle progress bar code

Code (CSharp):

1. private void circlebar(float adderSf, float stepgoalf)
2.         {
3.             float percentage = adderSf / stepgoalf;
4.  
5.             if (percentage > 0.999)
6.             {
7.                 percentage = 1.0f;
8.             }
9.             CircleProgressBar.GetComponent<Image>().fillAmount = percentage;
10.         }

just for summary:

if i call the method where it's now stated, it wouldnt work.
if i call the method between steptext and distancetext, distancetext and the following would not work.

Maybe someone can help me. I'm sorry for my broken english.

 

Add debug.log statements everywhere.

For example (this is just an example, don't forget to add Debug.Log statements elsewhere too):

Code (CSharp):

1.             if (loadSteps == steps)
2.             {
3.                 Debug.Log("Setting stepText");
4.                 stepText.text = loadSteps.ToString();
5.                 Debug.Log("Setting distanceMeterText");
6.                 distanceMeterText.text = loadDistance.ToString();
7.                 Debug.Log("Setting distanceKMText");
8.                 float loadKM = loadDistance / 1000;
9.                 distanceKMText.text = loadKM.ToString();
10.                 Debug.Log("doing progressbar");
11.                 //progressbar
12.                 //float adderSf = loadSteps;
13.                 //float stepgoalf = stepgoal;
14.                 //circlebar(adderSf, stepgoalf);
15.             }

Then check the log to see where in the function it stops executing. Check for exceptions.

 

Thank you very much, it helped alot.
My Problem was a null reference exception, because i didnt have all the objects i needed in every scene declared. so i ended up having some invisible gameobjects in my scenes, but it works now without any problems.
