Need help, it's so simple but im new!

Hi so i get the error There is already a local variable with the name 'hit'.

Code:

Code (JavaScript):

1. #pragma strict
2.  
3. var TheDamage : int = 50;
4. var Distance : float;
5. var MaxDistance : float = 1.5;
6. var NinjaSword : Transform;
7. var SoilderHit : Transform;
8.  
9. function Update ()
10. {
11.     if (Input.GetButtonDown("Fire1"))
12.    
13.     NinjaSword.animation.Play("NinjaSwordAni");
14.     var hit : RaycastHit;
15.    
16.     if (Input.GetButtonDown("Fire1"))
17.    
18.     SoilderHit.animation.Play("soilderhit");
19.     var hit : RaycastHit;
20.    
21.    
22.     if (Physics.Raycast (transform.position, transform.TransformDirection(Vector3.forward), hit))
23.         {
24.             Distance = hit.distance;
25.             if (Distance < MaxDistance)
26.             {
27.             hit.transform.SendMessage("ApplyDamage", TheDamage, SendMessageOptions.DontRequireReceiver);
28.                     }
29.                 }
30.             }

Getting the error on: 16-19

 

Means exactly what it says. On line 14 you declare a variable called hit, and you try to declare it again on line 19.

 

So I can't use it twice? How do I make both animations play at the same time sen?
I'm new, so i'm just trying to learn.

 

Oh i removed it and now it says

UnassignedReferenceException: The variable SoilderHit of MeleeSystem has not been assigned.
You probably need to assign the SoilderHit variable of the MeleeSystem script in the inspector.

 

you ask " if (Input.GetButtonDown("Fire1"))" twice, can't you just use the statement once and do all your stuff there ?
and you can declare the hit var at the beginning, just like the other variables.
and correct me if i'm wrong, but if you use more then one sentence after you use a "if" statement, don't you need to use a "endif" statement as well ?

 

Oh i'm retarded haha. Thanks dude but I still have one problem..
The animation state soliderhit could not be played because it couldn't be found!
Please attach an animation clip with the name 'soliderhit' or call this function only for existing animations.

I'm not sure how

 

in your script it says "soilder", and now you say "solider", but don't you mean "Soldier" ?
i'm sure you misspelled it somewhere, then you get a null reference..

i also mad a lot of spelling errors when i started scripting, so it wouldn't surprise me if that was the case.

 

Yeah I misspelled it, didn't notice at first. I changed it and still the same

"The animation state SoldierHit could not be played because it couldn't be found!
Please attach an animation clip with the name 'SoldierHit' or call this function only for existing animations."

How do I fix this?
Thanks for being supportive

 

I'm problary gonna start over because it all got screwed up.

 

drop the animation into the script (inspector) again, cause the link probably got lost after you renamed it, it usually cleares the slot when you rename your variables..
