Hi, I’ve tried searching around for an hour but couldn’t get an answer… Either my search skill sucks or there isn’t a similar problem.

I’m trying to run ScriptB’s method from Script A. Problem is that ScriptB’s method contains non-static variables like renderer.enabled and a bool.

This is Script A

void HideDockSign ()
	{
		dropZone1.GetComponent<SurfaceScript>().DockSign();
	}

This is SurfaceScript.cs

public bool 		occupied	= false;
public GameObject	dockSign;

public static void DockSign ()
	{
		if (!occupied)
		dockSign.renderer.enabled = true;
	}

I do not want to define these variables again from Script A because there are other 8 similar items, and that would make a mess. Any ideas? Thanks!

You are trying to call a static function DockSign from a non-static context (a particular instance of the script). To run DockSign from HideDockSign just do:

void HideDockSign ()
{
    SurfaceScript.DockSign();
}

On the other hand, a static method like DockSign can’t access non-static variables like dockSign.
