Script messed up

Unity Engine
1

Hi,

I am making a console script. At some point when inserting the script to a gameComponent it doesn’t read out the variables anymore. When i restart the game the output is totally messed up, but then when i readd the script to the object is works fine again, except for the variables.

Does this sound familiar? I am really getting tired of re-adding the script everytime i want to test.

Do you mean an editor script? In what way does the output get messed up? Perhaps you could post the code that is causing the problems - it might help make things clearer.

No the script itself doesn’t run when i restart the game, and the compiler gives no error. The script doesn’t parse the properties for the unity propertygrid, it just shows “Script” there.
