So I made a template Job class for my game and made a new one for with all the details that were needed. I can access the class but I can’t access the variables in the Samurai class at all and trying to make them public brings up errors. I was wondering if I needed to change the template or how to set up the Samurai class in the first place.

public class Classes : MonoBehaviour {

	public class Job {
		public int jobID;
		public string name;
		public string shortDesc;
		public string longDesc;
		public int attPlus;
		public int magPlus;
		public int abiPlus;
		public int spdPlus;
		public int lckPlus;
		public int defPlus;
		public int mdfPlus;
		public int hpPlus;
	}

	public class Samurai : Job {
		public void Main () {
			Job samurai = new Job ();
			samurai.jobID = 1;
			samurai.name = "Samurai";
			samurai.shortDesc = "A warrior with high speed and ability with a katana.";
			samurai.attPlus = 1;
			samurai.magPlus = 0;
			samurai.abiPlus = 3;
			samurai.spdPlus = 5;
			samurai.lckPlus = 3;
			samurai.defPlus = 0;
			samurai.mdfPlus = 0;
			samurai.hpPlus = 4;
		}
	}
}

A class can have a constructor, in which you specify the values of the fields in that particular instance of the class object. For example:

    public class Temp {
		public int field;
            
        // constructor
		public Temp(int field) {
			this.field = field;
		}
	}

    // create new Temp object with field set to 2
	public Temp tempObj = new Temp(2);

You can do this with your Job class, like so:

public class Classes : MonoBehaviour {

    [System.Serializable] // display values in inspector
	public class Job {
		public int jobID;
		public string name;
		public string shortDesc;
		public string longDesc;
		public int attPlus;
		public int magPlus;
		public int abiPlus;
		public int spdPlus;
		public int lckPlus;
		public int defPlus;
		public int mdfPlus;
		public int hpPlus;

    	// constructors

	    public Job() { } // empty constructor, use default values

		public Job(int jobID, string name, string shortDesc, string longDesc,
			int attPlus, int magPlus, int abiPlus, int spdPlus, int lckPlus, int defPlus, int mdfPlus, int hpPlus)
		{
			this.jobID = jobID;
			this.name = name;
			this.shortDesc = shortDesc;
			this.longDesc = longDesc;
			this.attPlus = attPlus;
			this.magPlus = magPlus;
			this.abiPlus = abiPlus;
			this.spdPlus = spdPlus;
			this.lckPlus = lckPlus;
			this.defPlus = defPlus;
			this.mdfPlus = mdfPlus;
			this.hpPlus = hpPlus;
		}
	}

    // create new Job object
	public Job Samurai = new Job(
		1, "Samurai", "A warrior with high speed and ability with a katana.", "",
		1, 0, 3, 5, 3, 0, 0, 4);
}

Or during runtime, you can change the values of a Job object.

class OtherScript : MonoBehaviour
{
	void Start()
	{
		Job samurai = new Job();
		samurai.jobID = 1;
		samurai.name = "Samurai";
		samurai.shortDesc = "A warrior with high speed and ability with a katana.";
		samurai.attPlus = 1;
		samurai.magPlus = 0;
		samurai.abiPlus = 3;
		samurai.spdPlus = 5;
		samurai.lckPlus = 3;
		samurai.defPlus = 0;
		samurai.mdfPlus = 0;
		samurai.hpPlus = 4;

		Debug.Log("Samurai job description is: " + samurai.shortDesc);
	}
}
