    Hi

    I have a class definition which starts as

    Code (csharp):
    1.  
    2.     namespace Prototype.NetworkLobby
    3.     {
    4.    
    5.            public class LobbyPlayer : NetworkLobbyPlayer
    6.           {
    7.  
    How do I get a reference to the LobbyPlayer Class from another class?
    If I try adding
    Code (csharp):
    1.  using Prototype.NetworkLobby;
    I get 'Using directive is unnecessary' and 'The type or namespace Prototype could not be found'

    If the class you are trying to reference LobbyPlayer from is also part of the Prototype.NetworkLobby namespace, then you do not need to place the using Prototype.NetworkLobby reference up the top of your script. Ensure that the file name (i.e. the script name) of class LobbyPlayer exactly matches the class name.
