Hey guys trying to make a simple trigger to turn on the animator component.
error CS0119: Expression denotes a method group', where a variable’, value' or type’ was expected

	void OnTriggerEnter(Collider collision)
	{

		if (collision.gameObject.CompareTag ("Active")) {
			GetComponent.Animator (true);
			IsShooting += +1;
	}
	}

}

Your inner code is incorrect, syntactically speaking. You are calling the method GetComponent<>() as if it were a field. In the second line, you should remove the second plus sign. In C#, positive values don’t need to be specified, only negatives. It should be the following:

GetComponent<Animator>().enabled = true;

IsShooting += 1;

3

Change “GetComponent.Animator…”

to

GetComponent().enabled = true;

4

GetComponent().enabled = true;
