Problems

Code (JavaScript):

1. //IMPORTANT NOTE: This script was updated last in tutorial number 6. If you haven't watched it yet, go do it before messaging me with errors :)
2.  
3. #pragma strict
4.  
5. var TheDammage : int = 50;
6. var Distance : float;
7. var MaxDistance : float = 1.5;
8. var karambit : Transform;
9.  
10. function Update ()
11. {
12.     if (Input.GetButtonDown("Fire1"))
13.     {
14.         karambit.animation.Play("Basic 1");
15.  
16.     }
17. }
18.  
19. function AttackDammage ()
20. {
21.         //Attack function
22.         var hit : RaycastHit;
23.         if (Physics.Raycast (karambit.transform.position, karambit.transform.TransformDirection(Vector3.forward), hit))
24.         {
25.             Distance = hit.distance;
26.             if (Distance < MaxDistance)
27.             {
28.                 hit.transform.SendMessage("ApplyDammage", TheDammage, SendMessageOptions.DontRequireReceiver);
29.             }
30.         }
31. }

 

Have you read the error message? The first one is a big clue to what's going on.

 

Okay I fixed the first error but I still don't understand the other 2 ?

 

basically the unassignedreferenceexception is telling you that you are trying to use a variable without it having anything in it.

So in the code above you have declared karambit as a variable of type transform but have not actually assigned anything to it yet - so when unity tries to use Karambit it has an empty transform - you need to assign it to something.

 

Check out the screenshot.. the variable should be assigned. That's what puzzled me.

I suggest taking that object apart and putting it back together, re-assigning things freshly.

 

yeah that is a good pickup der_r - definitely a re-assemble and see if the error is still there
