Script not changing boolean

So i have this script:

1. #pragma strict
2. 
   
3. public var IsShooting : boolean = false;
4. 
   
5. function Update (){
6. 
   
7. if(Input.GetButtonDown ("Fire1")){
8. IsShooting = !IsShooting; // toggles onoff at each click
10. if (IsShooting){
11. print("You're shooting!");
12. } else {
13. print("Not shooting");
14. }
15. }
16. }

I found it on the forums as an answer, just to try it out but it's not working(doing something wrong most likely).
So i have 2 problems.

1- It does enable and prints "You're shooting!", but doesn't change the bool in the parameter:/
2- I also have no clue how to make it so when i hold it, it shoots, instead of toggling. I did try changing a few things here and there like IsShooting = True; then on button release IsShooting = False; But it was constantly on. So i went back to the original script :/

The bool's name is also "IsShooting"
It's attached to the weapon "Mac-10" which is the gameobject with the animator and controller.

So any help would be appreciated

 

I just realised, this doesn't change the animator boolean does it? Can someone confirm that?

 

Ye i got it, ty
