public class Change : MonoBehaviour {

public float TriggerObject; 

void OnTriggerEnter (Collider other) {

    if (other = TriggerObject) {

        SceneManager.LoadScene("Lv2");

TriggerObject is what is getting the error(2nd time its used)

So a couple things first off your if statement comparison is incorrect you are using a = (assignment operator) instead of == (equal comparator). Also why is your TriggerObject a float. It should be a Collider if you want it to be comparable/settable to the other Collider. So I would say change it to the following and see if that helps:

public Collider TriggerObject; // should be a Collider to match the 'other' variable
void OnTriggerEnter (Collider other) {
    if (other == TriggerObject)  { //change = to == for comparison
        SceneManager.LoadScene("Lv2");
    }
}

Hope this helps!
