[SOLVED] Can't find Javascript Reference from a C# Script

Unity Engine
1

Hi Unity friends!!

I am having some trouble with my game. I have a javascript named Logica.js, this script contains some state and gameplay variables i need, I also have a GameObject with the Logica.js script attached to it.

On the other hand, I made a class called InterfaceManager.cs, this C# script has all the code i need to make some sprites for my interface using SpriteManager.

My problem comes with a specific sprite i need to show or hide at an specific time. To do so, i need to have a reference to the Logica object in my InterfaceManager script.

I have tried the following

public class InterfaceManager : MonoBehaviour {
	//Manager
	public SpriteManager spManager;
	public SpriteInfo spInfo;
	public Logica logica;

but Unity says "The type or namespace name ‘Logica’ could not be found, so I tried writing

using Logica;

But I got the same error. then I tried making the variable logica of GameObject type, and then in the awake function, tried to get the Logica component.

logica.GetComponent(typeof(Logica) as Logica);

but the same error appears.

Please if some one knows how to correctly get the reference, i will be very grateful.

Thank you all!

Argilliath.

Check this out:

That explains what to do when you have a C# and a JS script trying to reference each other. Basically your C# script doesn’t realize there is a class ‘Logica’, because it has to be placed in a specific folder, explained by that reference link.

Hi Tempest!

Thanks a lot, but that doesn’t seems to work, I am in Unity Iphone right now, and the only folder i have is Assets, since i made an empty project. I tried to make the Standard Assets Folder, and placed the scripts accordingly, but then the Logica.js script i placed there doesn’t appear in my project, I imported it but the same error “The type or namespace name of ‘Logica’ could not be found” pops up again.

Thanks a lot again, hope some one can help me.

Hi Unity guys!

I wasn’t able to cope with the folders issue, but i was able to make things work by using the GameComponent.SendMessage() function, now I have a reference to the InterfaceManager.cs script in the Logica.js script.

public var interfaz : GameObject;

the interfaz variable has the connection to the InterfaceManagerScript.

		if (estado == EstadosLogica.SAQUE_LOCAL_INICIADO || estado == EstadosLogica.SAQUE_LOCAL_DRAGGING) {
			interfaz.SendMessage("setAnimation", true);
			interfaz.SendMessage("mostrarBarraSaque");
			ultimoEstado = estado;
		}

and with that method now my animation activates or deactives according to the estado (state) variable.

Thanks for the help!

your link is dead what did it say ?

The link is dead because this thread is from 8 years ago. Tempest last logged in 6 years ago, so good luck waiting for his answer.

The answer today should be JS / UnityScript is deprecated in Unity. You should be focused on switching your JS scripts to C# instead of continuing to work on compatibility issues, as at some point in the near future they will cease to work entirely anyway.

thank you for your time

Its actually still in the current documentation.

But I strongly agree with @Joe-Censored , you should be working to convert your scripts over to C#. UnityScript is dead.
