Referencing Other Scripts

Alright. So I have a prefab called "Hurdles" which has a script attached named "HurdleSelfDestruct", I also have a GameObject named Player who has a Player_Ball script attached. I need to access a boolean in the Player_Ball script from my HurdleSelfDestruct script. I have tried many different methods and nothing seems to work. I just keep getting this error:

Assets/Scripts/HurdleSelfDestruct.cs(9,57): error CS0246: The type or namespace name `Player_Ball' could not be found. Are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

 

Does this work?

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2. var myBool = GameObject.FindWithTag("Player").GetComponent<Player_Ball>().myBool
3.  

 

It is easier to accomplish in JS, I am using C# unfortunately.

 

This is likely because your Player_Ball script isn't anywhere that your HurdleSelfDestruct script can see it.

You may need something at the top of your HurdleSelfDestruct script along the lines of:
using Player_Ball;

However, I'm not convinced this will work because I don't know what namespaces you have set up.

You may find it useful doing a short-ish tutorial on just standard c-sharp programming to get a feel for what is going on here. It's a bit more involved that the unity tutorials seem to let on.

I hope this helps.

 

My code is C#

 

Oh, I have never used VAR before in C#, it always just throws me errors, so I just associated it with JS. My apologies

 

I have solved the issue. Apparently I had an older script named Player, and for some reason it was calling that instead of the GameObject. After removing it, things started to work correctly. Thank you everyone!
