I got a error CS1525. invalid expression ‘)’

public class killertriangle : MonoBehaviour
{

void Start()
{

}

public int damage = 1;
public float speed;

private void Update()
{
transform.Translate(Vector2.left * speed * Time.deltaTime);
}

void OnTriggerEnter2D(Collider2D other)
{
if (other.CompareTag(“Player”))
{
// player takes damage .

other.GetComponent<“Player”>().health -= damage;
Debug.Log(other.GetComponent<“Player”>().health);
Destroy(gameObject);
}
}

How can this be fixed?

What even is this.

To get a component you use the Class name, without the speech marks.

There actually is a version of GetComponent where you pass in the class name as a string, but the syntax is different, and it’s less performant.

and it’s less performant.

… And it always scared me because it wasn’t compiler-safe.

But I suppose if it’s already there it might serve some handy bridge with text-to-object serialization in some user-facing context.
