After Adding the Health Bar of Ruby and done scripting both Ruby Controller and UIHealthBar,
I start the game and when I hit the enemy it doesn’t collide (before that it collides) and if I stand in the damage zone the game freeze and comes out with this error.
I uploaded two pictures one from the unity editor and the other of the Damage zone script
The code you posted has no issues. Seems like something within the controller isn’t set correctly within the editor. The error is on line 89 of the RubyController script so something in there isn’t being set.
Check the player object in the editor to see if something isn’t set up within the RubyController component.
line89 = UIHealthBar.instance.SetValue(currentHealth / (float) maxHealth);
I’ve copied it from the tutorial and still got the error
Copying code is only a tiny fraction of the issue. You have to set it up.
Thankfully, for the error you report, it does not even remotely matter what you are doing.
The answer is always the same… ALWAYS. It is the single most common error ever.

Thanks for replying and for the analysis
you Lighten me up with some extra work I need to do with C# as I’m still a beginner and trying to learn and understand how to write and understand the code.
You need to assign the C# script to the Game Object inside unity editor
