Hi there,

I have made a script which spawns enemies and I have a Music Control script that I wanting to attach via inspector however it will not let me add the music control to the prefab so it is auto assigned when the enemies spawn. I have tried making an editor script which someone helped me on here before with and put

if((messaboutEnemyScript.musicSystem == null) && (GameObject.FindWithTag(“Music Control”) != null))
{
messaboutEnemyScript.musicSystem = GameObject.FindWithTag(“Music Control”);
}

However I get the message “Cannot implicitly convert type ‘UnityEngine.GameObject’ to ‘MusicControl’” of course as you cannot do that. Does anyone know how I would achieve auto assigning this?

Thank you so much for all of your help recently! @Mavina

From the error you posted, it looks like you are trying to assign a game object to a MusicControl. If that is all that the problem is try the following first to fix the error.

In place of your original code

if((messaboutEnemyScript.musicSystem == null) &&
    (GameObject.FindWithTag("Music Control") != null)) 
{
    messaboutEnemyScript.musicSystem = GameObject.FindWithTag("Music Control");
}

do this instead

if((messaboutEnemyScript.musicSystem == null) &&
    (GameObject.FindWithTag("Music Control") != null) &&
    (GameObject.FindWithTag("Music Control").GetComponent<MusicControl>() != null)) 
{
    messaboutEnemyScript.musicSystem = GameObject.FindWithTag("Music Control").GetComponent<MusicControl>();
}

If you are still having problems please post all offending code as requested above.

We lack a bit of information for helping you out.

First, just for the case of being able to read your code, always put your code in coder tags.
Like this :

		if ((messaboutEnemyScript.musicSystem == null) 
		&& (GameObject.FindWithTag ("Music Control") != null)) {
		messaboutEnemyScript.musicSystem = GameObject.FindWithTag ("Music Control");
	}

That “101010” button is there for that purpose.

Now, the main problem we have at understanding your question is:

“What has to be attached to who?”

Should the Music Control script be attached to the Game Object that has the script which spawns the enemies or to the spawned enemies themselves?

Also, what is the messaboutEnemyScript referring to? We need the whole script to make sure we can help you out there. We can’t just “guess” out of so little.
