The complete error message contains everything you need to know to fix the error yourself.

Always start with the FIRST error in the list, as sometimes that error causes or compounds some or all of the subsequent errors.

The important parts of the error message are:

  • the description of the error itself (google this; you are NEVER the first one!)
  • the file it occurred in (critical!)
  • the line number and character position (the two numbers in parentheses)

All of that information is in the actual error message and you must pay attention to it. Learn how to identify it instantly so you don’t have to stop your progress and fiddle around with the forum.

How to understand compiler and other errors and even fix them yourself:

Understand the difference between the MonoBehavior instance shortcut .gameObject and the type GameObject. They are not interchangeable. When in doubt, look for examples of the API you’re using and you’ll instantly see the issue.
