No errors, but not working. Anything wrong with this script?

Hi,

I attempted converting a Java script into a C# and the console and monodevelop read no errors.

Yet the door isn't opening.

Before I focus on working out what I've done wrong through the inspector, I was wondering whether there is anything wrong with this door opening code:

public class Doorscript : Monodevelop {

Gameobject Door;

public void OnTriggerEnter (Collider other) {

if (other.tag == "Player")

{
Gameobject.Find("Door").animation.Play ("door open");
}
}
}

 

onTriggerEnter should be OnTriggerEnter with a capital O, for one.

 

Ah sorry that was a mistype, it does have a capital O. I might change that....

 

I refuse to believe that MonoDevelop doesn't give you any errors, because mine goes red immediately. Also, have a look on how to use code tags properly.

Your code has several errors:

1. Monodevelop should be MonoBehaviour.
2. Gameobject should be GameObject.
3. onTriggerEnter should be OnTriggerEnter.
4. The Door variable is never assigned.

Here's an untested revision:

Code (CSharp):

1. public class Doorscript : MonoBehaviour
2. {
3.     GameObject Door;
4.  
5.     void Start ()
6.     {
7.         Door = GameObject.Find ( "Door" );
8.     }
9.  
10.     public void OnTriggerEnter ( Collider other )
11.     {
12.         if ( other.tag == "Player" )
13.         {
14.             Door.animation.Play( "door open" );
15.         }
16.     }
17. }

Bliss, it works.
Thanks so much for your help toreau.
