Hi, I’m using some script for one of my own projects from UFPS and would like to know how I would access the Inflictor below from another script with C, as I’m .js I’m not to sure with this, thanks.

```
	protected class Inflictor
	{
		public Transform Transform = null;
		public float DamageTime = 0.0f;
		public Inflictor(Transform transform, float damageTime)
		{
			Transform = transform;
			DamageTime = damageTime;
		}
	}

```

It can be done with reflection. But in reality you should just get your access modifiers right and call it public.
