Expecting EOF, found public

[Joebear]

So I wrote this script based off of a script that was used in an answer on this website, but I have a problem: Unity says that public is unexpected and it was expecting the EOF. I’m not sure how to fix this since I’m rather new. This is a script for a shooting gun, and I need the projectile to be public, however the word “public” 1;1 is not recognized in the system. Please help, thank you!

public( Rigidbody )projectile;

public float speed = 20;

// Use this for initialization
void Start () {

}

// Update is called once per frame
void Update () {

 if (Input.GetButtonDown("Fire1"))
 {
     Rigidbody instantiatedProjectile = Instantiate(projectile,
                                                    transform.position,
                                                    transform.rotation)
         as Rigidbody;
     
     instantiatedProjectile.velocity = transform.TransformDirection(new Vector3(0, 0,speed));
     
 }

}

Why did you put RigidBody in parentheses? I’m just curious to know where you got that idea. Anyway, simply remove them and you should be fine:

public Rigidbody projectile;
public float speed = 20;
