Error(non static member): using public variable from other script JS

Questions & Answers
1

i have this code from a script I created for collision

function onTriggerEnter(col : Collision)

{
	if(col.gameObject.name == "Current Power Up")
	{
	Destroy(col.gameObject);
	powerUp.countDown = powerUp.powerUpTime;
	}
}

and needs to access this variables and change the values

public var powerUpTime : float = 10.0; 
public var powerUpEffectTime : float = 5.0;

I get this error…how can i solve it?

Assets/snakeCollision.js(16,17): BCE0020: An instance of type ‘powerUp’ is required to access non static member ‘countDown’.

Assets/snakeCollision.js(16,37): BCE0020: An instance of type ‘powerUp’ is required to access non static member ‘powerUpTime’.

this will also be helpfull in future when i get to make the power up effecting the character.

Thanks in advance

after a bit research i found that i made some errors my self… Collision should be Collider and OnTriggerEnter is written wrong, anyway… i managed to get it to work

function OnTriggerEnter(col : Collider)
{

if(col.gameObject.name == "Current Power Up")
{
Debug.Log("Trigger Successfull");
Destroy(col.gameObject);
powerUpScript.countDown = powerUpScript.powerUpTime;
}

}
