how to i find var in function

trying to use a slider to control a var in a script.

i can find a function or a script easy enough, but i am stumped on finding the var in the function that i want to adjust.

for instance, be able to change var speed.

var speed = 1.0;


function Update () {
	
	transform.Translate(Time.deltaTime * speed, 0, 0);
}

how would this be changed to access speed?

var hScrollbarValue : float;

function OnGUI () {
	hScrollbarValue = GUI.HorizontalScrollbar (Rect (25, 25, 100, 30), hScrollbarValue, 1.0, 0.0, 10.0);
}

serious thanks

Perhaps I’m not understanding the issue, but it seems like you would just do this:

var speed = 1.0;


function Update () {
	
	transform.Translate(Time.deltaTime * speed, 0, 0);
}

function OnGUI () {
	speed = GUI.HorizontalScrollbar (Rect (25, 25, 100, 30), speed, 1.0, 0.0, 10.0);
}
