In my script:

#pragma strict
var toon = false;

var player1steps : int = 0;
var player2steps : int = 0;

var shader1 : Shader = Shader.Find("Toon/Lighted Outline");
var shader2 : Shader = Shader.Find("Diffuse");


function Start () {

}

function Update () {
//gameObject.Find("PlayerControl").GetComponent(PlayerControl).player1Turn;
//gameObject.Find("PlayerControl").GetComponent(PlayerControl).player2Turn;
//gameObject.Find("PlayerControl").GetComponent(PlayerControl).player1End;
//gameObject.Find("PlayerControl").GetComponent(PlayerControl).player2End;
var diceHit : int = Random.Range(1, 7);

}

if(toon == true) {
renderer.material.shader = shader1;

 
if(gameObject.Find("PlayerControl").GetComponent(PlayerControl).player1Turn == true) {
if(Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0)) {
player1steps = player1steps+diceHit;
gameObject.Find("PlayerControl").GetComponent(PlayerControl).player1End = true;
        }
	}
	
	//player2
	if(gameObject.Find("PlayerControl").GetComponent(PlayerControl).player2Turn == true) {
if(Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0)) {
player2steps = player2steps+diceHit;
gameObject.Find("PlayerControl").GetComponent(PlayerControl).player2End = true;
        }
	}


}



 
if(toon == false) {
renderer.material.shader = shader2; 
	}




function OnMouseOver () {
toon = true; }

function OnMouseExit () {
toon = false; }



What this script does is, when i click on a specific object, then the player moves, and next i click player2 moves. But this really isnt the point. The point is:

It says at: player1steps = player1steps+diceHit; and player2steps = player2steps+diceHit;

It says: Assets/Scripts/Dice.js(30,29): BCE0005: Unknown identifier: ‘diceHit’.

Why cant it plus the diceHit with the variables?

diceHit is declared in a function/method, move it out and reference it in the script. It’s only local to the update function.

#pragma strict
var toon = false;
 
var player1steps : int = 0;
var player2steps : int = 0;
 
var shader1 : Shader = Shader.Find("Toon/Lighted Outline");
var shader2 : Shader = Shader.Find("Diffuse");
 
var diceHit : int;

function Start () {
 
}
 
function Update () {
  //gameObject.Find("PlayerControl").GetComponent(PlayerControl).player1Turn;
  //gameObject.Find("PlayerControl").GetComponent(PlayerControl).player2Turn;
  //gameObject.Find("PlayerControl").GetComponent(PlayerControl).player1End;
  //gameObject.Find("PlayerControl").GetComponent(PlayerControl).player2End;
  diceHit = Random.Range(1, 7);
 
}
