How do I get this script to work

Questions & Answers

I new to scripting and I made this script:

#pragma strict

public var hasKey : boolean;
public var hasLight : boolean;
public var hasportalgun : boolean;

private var portalgun : portal gun;

if (hasportalgun == true)
	{
	Camera.main.gameObject.GetComponent( portalgun ).enabled = true;
	}
else
	{
	Camera.main.gameObject.GetComponent( portalgun ).enabled = false;
	}

I was wondering why it states that “private var portalgun : portal gun;” (my attempt at referencing another script that is on my main camera) needs a semicolon while it already has one. I’m trying to activate a the “portal gun” script when boolean = true for it. This is all in unity script(javascript), and no, I’m not finished writing it, I’d just like to see how it works before having activate a flashlight and a light when haslight = true. I also have other script that work to turn the boolean true when the player “gets” the item.

You cannot have spaces in your script names (I’m surprised Unity even allows you to do so!). Rename your “portal gun” script to “portalgun” and then change your code to reflect that:

private var portalgun : portalgun;
