change variable of other script

Hello

The player(Player) should change the speed of the camera(CameraController).
But when I want to get the variable from the player with GetComponent, it doesn't work.
Can someone help me please?

Player:

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2.  
3. [RequireComponent(typeof(AudioSource))]
4.  
5. public class Player : MonoBehaviour
6. {
7.     public int speedx = 4;
8.     public int speedy = 3;
9.     public GameObject OnDeathText;
10.     public GameObject Camera;
11.  
12.     AudioSource LevelAudio;
13.  
14.     void Start()
15.     {
16.         OnDeathText.SetActive(false);
17.         LevelAudio = GetComponent<AudioSource>();
18.         LevelAudio.Play(0);
19.     }
20.     void Update()
21.     {
22.         if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.Return))
23.         {            
24.             Vector3 new_position = new Vector3(transform.position.x + (speedx * Time.deltaTime), transform.position.y + (speedy * Time.deltaTime), 0);
25.             transform.position = new_position;
26.         }
27.  
28.         else
29.         {
30.             Vector3 new_position = new Vector3(transform.position.x + (speedx * Time.deltaTime), transform.position.y - (speedy * Time.deltaTime), 0);
31.             transform.position = new_position;
32.         }
33.        
34.     }
35.  
36.     void OnTriggerEnter2D(Collider2D collision)
37.     {
38.         if (collision.CompareTag("Level Touchable"))
39.         {
40.             Vector3 new_position = new Vector3(Camera.transform.position.x, Camera.transform.position.y, -1);
41.             OnDeathText.transform.position = new_position;
42.             OnDeathText.SetActive(true);
43.             Camera.GetComponent<CameraController>.speed = 0;
44.         }
45.     }
46. }

CameraController:

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2.  
3. public class CameraController : MonoBehaviour
4. {
5.     public int speed = 4;
6.     private void Start()
7.     {
8.         Application.targetFrameRate = 60;
9.     }
10.  
11.     void Update()
12.     {
13.         Vector3 new_position = new Vector3(transform.position.x + (speed * Time.deltaTime), transform.position.y, -10);
14.         transform.position = new_position;
15.     }
16. }

 

Try renaming your Camera game object to "camera", there already is a UnityEngine class called Camera to interface with cameras.

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2. using UnityEngine;
3. [RequireComponent(typeof(AudioSource))]
4. public class Player : MonoBehaviour
5. {
6.     public int speedx = 4;
7.     public int speedy = 3;
8.     public GameObject OnDeathText;
9.     public GameObject camera;
10.     AudioSource LevelAudio;
11.     void Start()
12.     {
13.         OnDeathText.SetActive(false);
14.         LevelAudio = GetComponent<AudioSource>();
15.         LevelAudio.Play(0);
16.     }
17.     void Update()
18.     {
19.         if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.Return))
20.         {          
21.             Vector3 new_position = new Vector3(transform.position.x + (speedx * Time.deltaTime), transform.position.y + (speedy * Time.deltaTime), 0);
22.             transform.position = new_position;
23.         }
24.         else
25.         {
26.             Vector3 new_position = new Vector3(transform.position.x + (speedx * Time.deltaTime), transform.position.y - (speedy * Time.deltaTime), 0);
27.             transform.position = new_position;
28.         }
29.      
30.     }
31.     void OnTriggerEnter2D(Collider2D collision)
32.     {
33.         if (collision.CompareTag("Level Touchable"))
34.         {
35.             Vector3 new_position = new Vector3(camera.transform.position.x, camera.transform.position.y, -1);
36.             OnDeathText.transform.position = new_position;
37.             OnDeathText.SetActive(true);
38.             camera.GetComponent<CameraController>.speed = 0;
39.         }
40.     }
41. }

@KyleTheCoder420
Thanks for the help. It works.

Code (CSharp):

1. cameracontroller.GetComponent<CameraController>().speed = 0;

The brackets were missing.

 

No problem!

 

Yep, GetComponent is a method, hence the ().
