An instance of type 'UnityEngine.Component' is required to access non static member

Questions & Answers
1

So I am sure its something simple I am doing wrong but I get that error for each one of these lines

var controller : CharacterController = GetComponent(CharacterController);
var fwd : Vector3 = transform.TransformDirection(Vector3.forward);
var dwn : Vector3 = transform.TransformDirection(Vector3.down);
if (!controller.isGrounded && !Physics.Raycast (transform.position, dwn, 1)){

Any clue what I am doing wrong.

I’ve added some to the code since last time but there it is.

Your references to Transform component are in the class Movement, not in the class XControls. Movement does not extends Monobehaviors, it’s nested inside XControls, that’s all, it doesn’t inherit anything from XControls either. That’s why it won’t compile. Also, the Update and Start would not be called.
