how to use bool from another script in if statment?

[Pendragon420]

i have a script that i want to use another scripts bool in an if statement. ive managed to get my code to have no errors but its not working how i want it to. my first script (with the bool) is:

public class ActionManager : MonoBehaviour {
	public bool Switch;
	public float seconds = 1;
	public GameObject AttackPrefab;
	// Use this for initialization
	void Start () {
	Switch = false;
	Physics2D.IgnoreLayerCollision (9, 8, true);

	
	}
	
	// Update is called once per frame
	void Update () {
		//makes attack active on fire1
		if (Input.GetButtonDown ("Fire1"))
						
{
			AttackPrefab.SetActive(true);

}
		//if active,
		if (AttackPrefab.activeSelf) 
{
		// count down
		seconds -= 2 * Time.deltaTime;
}
		//if seconds are less than zero
		if (seconds <= 0) 
{
		//set attack active to false
		AttackPrefab.SetActive (false);
		seconds = 1;
}
		if (Input.GetButtonDown ("Fire2")) {
			Switch = true;
			print ("switch!");
						Physics2D.IgnoreLayerCollision (9, 10, true);
						Physics2D.IgnoreLayerCollision (9, 8, false);
			
				} else if (Input.GetButtonUp ("Fire2")) {
			Switch = false;
			print ("unswitch!");
						Physics2D.IgnoreLayerCollision (9, 10, false);
						Physics2D.IgnoreLayerCollision (9, 8, true);

				}
		}
}

i want to use the bool Switch in this script:

sing UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class PlatformBackShader : MonoBehaviour {

	public GameObject player;
	private ActionManager Manager;


	// Use this for initialization
	void Start () {
	Manager = player.GetComponent<ActionManager>();

	
	}
	
	// Update is called once per frame
	void Update () {
		if (Manager.Switch == true);{
			print ( "it worked!" );
}
}
}

ive been searching for so long how to do this but i cant seem to get it right :(.
what i want to do is change the color of a platform when the bool Switch is true.
seems simple right?

thanks guys!

You have an extra ‘;’ on line 19 of your second script. It is causing the ‘if’ statement to be terminated so the code in the ‘{}’ is being executed every frame regardless of the setting of ‘Switch’. Your method of accessing ‘Switch’ in the other script correct.

For starters:

if (Manager.Switch == true);{
            print ( "it worked!" );
}

That is wrong, you don’t put a semi colon after the if condition

if (Manager.Switch == true) {
            print ( "it worked!" );
}
