PlayerState (upper case ‘P’) is an enumerated type. The variable you want to use in your switch statement is playerState (lowercase ‘p’).

You use the Enum Type as variable in the switch statement, instead of the variable of the type PlayerState.

switch(playerState) {
    //....
}

and not

switch(PlayerState) {
    //....
}

Also, please format your code properly on future posts. An unformatted script is nigh illegible.
