ambiguity error?

Unity Engine

Hi my code is the following:

using UnityEngine;

public class Wristwatch : MonoBehaviour
{
    public Animator animator;
    public Transform tf;
    public bool walking, testtrigger;
    float currx,curry,stepx,stepy,totalxy,desxup,desxdown,desyup,desydown; //e.g. desyup = upper limit of desy
    public float desrange, speed;
    void Update()
    {
        //Grab positions for easy calling
        currx = tf.position.x;
        curry = tf.position.y;

        //Update Anim Parameters
        animator.SetBool("Walking",walking);

        //Manage Movement
        if(Between(currx,desxdown,desxup) && Between(curry,desydown,desyup))
        {
            walking = false;
        }
        if(walking)
        {
            tf.Translate(new Vector3(stepx * speed,stepy * speed,0f));
        }

        //Temporary Test Trigger
        if(testtrigger)
        {
            StartMoving(-0.5f, 3f);
            testtrigger = false;
        }
    }
    public void StartMoving(float desx, float desy)
    {
        //Calculate Step
        totalxy = (desx - currx) + (desy - curry);
        stepx = (desx - currx) / totalxy;
        stepy = (desy - curry) / totalxy;
        walking = true;

        //Calculate Limits
        desxup = desx + desrange;
        desyup = desy + desrange;
        desxdown = desx - desrange;
        desydown = desy - desrange;
    }
    public bool Between(float x,float min,float max)
    {
        if(x < max && x > min){return(true);}else{return(false);}
    }
}

and i get ambiguity errors on every single variable.
normally this would indicate to me that there is a duplicate script somewhere, but i have searched the entire project and there is nothing. i am using unity collab, is that the issue?

can you show the exact error and the lines for which it is reported?

This is an excellent first diagnosis. Another way this can happen is if an old assembly does not properly rebuild itself. You can try remediate this by right-clicking in the Project window and doing a Reimport All.
