So I’m trying to program a questing system… And i have a question i want to program a quest definition file in the sense i can enable the bool when i’m programming a quest and i suddenly have access to several different variables… How do i do this in C#? I already have a quest code going i just need help

 using UnityEngine;
    using System.Collections;
    
    public class Quests : MonoBehaviour {
    public static bool Questing;
    	// Update is called once per frame
    	public static void OnGui () {
    	// Is Questing Allowed?
    		if(Questing == false){
    		GUI.Box(new Rect(10,10,10,10),"No Quests!!!");
    		}
    	if (Questing == true){		
      float timer;
    	Money.enabled = true;
    			
    		}
    	}
    void rewards () {
    	
    	}
    }

Ok I understand your problem now. You should read up on variable scope CodeCandle.com is for sale | HugeDomains

You set up the questing bool as a public variable inside your class.
While you set up float timer as a variable inside a method(function) of your class.

Nothing outside a class can see whats inside a classes functions, they can only see whats set to public in the class itself. So, to access the timer, change your code to this

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
 
public class Quests : MonoBehaviour 
{
    public static bool Questing;
    public float timer;

    public static void OnGui () 
    {
        // Is Questing Allowed?
        if(Questing == false)
        {
            GUI.Box(new Rect(10,10,10,10),"No Quests!!!");
        }

        if (Questing == true)
        {     
            Money.enabled = true;
        }
    }

    void rewards () 
    {
 
    }
}

However, this is considered bad programming practice. Ideally, you want to make all the variables private and create get/set public methods for each one.

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class Quests : MonoBehaviour 
{
    private bool Questing;
    private float timer;

    void OnGui () 
    {
        //Shortened code
    }

    void rewards () 
    {

    }

    public bool getQuesting()
    {
        return Questing;
    }
    public float getTimer()
    {
        return timer;
    }
    public void setQuesting(bool newValue)
    {
        Questing = newValue;
    }
    public void setTimer(float newValue)
    {
        timer = newValue;
    }
}

Now the only way to read/change the private classes variables are by using special public methods. This ensures that you never make any mistakes, and is just considered proper coding.
