Question how to check if ui toggle is true or false?

hi! I want to read if the UI toggle is true or false. I have this script which doesn't work for no reason
Any Idea how to check that? Thanks!

Code (CSharp):

1.             if (toggleAP == true)
2.             {
3.                 AutoPilot = true;
4.             }
5.             else
6.             {
7.                 AutoPilot = false;
8.             }

 

Please just post more of the relevant code to reduce guesswork.
If toggleAP is anything but a bool, the code makes no sense. But if it's a bool, then what is the ui toggle?

If toggleAP is a Toggle (https://docs.unity3d.com/2017.3/Documentation/ScriptReference/UI.Toggle.html) then you get its value through the isOn property. Thus you need to compare that, not to the component itself.

It is also unnecessary to compare booleans to true or false. (someBool == true) is the same as just (someBool), and (someBool == false) is the same as just (!someBool). And if the above is all the if statement is supposed to do you could even reduce the entire code to someBool = anotherBool. Or if they are always identitcal anyways, just use the ui bool and delete the other.

 

Sorry.. I am not good at explaining things. So basicly what I mean is: I have a UI toggle. I want to read in the code if the toggle is true or not. (from my research and what I genneraly know: if (examplename == true))

Code (CSharp):

1.     public bool AutoPilot = false;
2.     public Toggle toggleAP;
3.  
4.     void Update()
5.     {
6.         _AutoPilot(); //have the AutoPilot in a Update function to work at every frame.
7.         SetVerticalSpeed(); //have the setVerticalSpeed in a Update function to work at every frame.
8.         SetHeading(); //have the setHeading in a Update function to work at every frame.
9.         SetAutopilot(); //have the setAutopilot in a Update function to work at every frame.
10.     }
11.  
12.     void SetAutopilot()
13.     {
14.         if (toggleAP == true)
15.         {
16.             AutoPilot = true;
17.         }
18.         else
19.         {
20.             AutoPilot = false;
21.         }
22.     }

or... if i say it like that: if (the toggle is checked) now what code is that (the toggle is checked)? I thought it is if (toggle == true)...

 

I already posted the answer you are looking for above.
