    I made this little test script:
    Code (csharp):
    1. function Update () {
    2. var Mycamera = Camera.main.transform;
    3. Mycamera.parent = transform;
    4. }
    (so it's JS)

    When I try to drag it onto a cube, a messagebox appears:

    I don't see what's wrong, when I try to do a simple parent it just won't!
    Im using 1.1b2 by the way..

    "The script needs to successfully compile and inherit from MonoBehavior."

    It says that because your script has compile errors. Open unity's console to see and fix them.

    Since the script seems to have no apparent compile errors, you most likely have a compile error in some of your other scripts.

    Thats the weird part; I tried with a new scene and a flawless script- exactly the same message when I try to drag it onto a model! I'll reinstall it, maybe that'll fix it..

    1) Change one line in one of your scripts, this will compile your scripts again and show you any compile errors you have in them.
    Eg. add an empty line in one of your scripts

    2) Open the unity console, take a screenshot of it and post it.

    Reinstalling unity will not change anything.
    Next beta will contain a fix so that compile errors will not be removed when restarting unity.

    Hmm, I'll try that, but what would be cool also would be to have some sort of syntax sorting in the editor(like in flash), im sure that would decrease theese sort of mistakes as Im most likely having now..

    [EDIT] Restarted and Made a new project, works now.. :?: [/EDIT]
