Variables not showing in the Inspector

Hi i'm new at Unity, trying to make a small 2D game by tutorial. So here's the code, the problem is that my variables are not showing in the Inspector so i can set up the elements. Any help ?

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.UI;




public class GameController : MonoBehaviour
{

public Player player;
public InputField textEntryField;
public Text logText;
public Text currentText;

[TextArea]
public string introText;


// Start is called before the first frame update
void Start()
{
logText.text = introText;
DisplayLocation();
textEntryField.ActivateInputField();

}

// Update is called once per frame
void Update()
{

}

public void DisplayLocation()
{
string description = player.currentLocation.description + "\n";
desription += player.currentLocation.GetConnectionsText();
currentText.text = description;
}
}

 

Please use code tags.

Which of your fields do not show up? I assume your script did compile successfully and you created an empty game object and attached that script?

 

it shows none of the viaribles.It compiled perfectly. I attached it to a empty game object yes. Here's a pic.

 

Do you have any errors in your console window?
Did you remember to save your changes to the file in your code editor?

 

No, nothing unfortunately. That's why i'm confused what can be the problem.
I had similar problem with some previous script. I just changed some uppercases of my variables in the code and then it magically worked. I tried the same thing with this script but somehow it shows nothing. :/

 

If you click on your script in the project folder, Unity will show a preview of the script in the preview window (bottom right corner usually). Does that preview of the script match what you see in your code editor?

 

yes, totally the same.

 

Kinda stumping me then... It should work.

If I were you I would close Unity, delete the Library folder inside the project (don't worry, everything inside there is temporary and Unity will recreate it), and reopen the project.

 

I've run across some very strange Unity Editor behaviour with some special keywords.

Can you try removing

Code (CSharp):

1. [TextArea]

and see what happens?

 

Oh, and check if you have a GameController file somewhere in a folder called "Editor"

 

All fields worked fine for me in a test script. [TextArea] is correct.
Try renaming the script file name and class name to something other than GameController. There may be a conflict, as mentioned.
