Either there are null GameObjects in players which I assume is a list or array. Or some of the players don’t have a puppet on them. Use Debug.Log(); on the GameObject and the puppet to figure out which one is null and go from there with figuring out why it’s null.

Please use code tags. There is a pinned thread in the forums on how to do so.

Did you get this fixed?

Yes, that one :slight_smile:

foreach (GameObject go in players) {
if(go == null) {
   Debug.Log("go is null");
   continue;
   }
ShirorenzPuppet sp = go.GetComponent<ShirorenzsPuppet>();
if(sp == null) Debug.Log("sp is null");
else sp.GetExperience(expGranted/players.Length);
}

I think that’s what the other poster meant.
