VS Code: The type or namespace name cannot be found

VoodooDetective · January 15, 2020, 2:18am

For some reason, after building my game VS Code started complaining it couldn’t find type/namespace in my main assembly. I have an assembly sitting in the Asset folder and that’s it. It’s been working perfectly until now. Visual Studio Code still seems to function, but VS Code can’t seem to figure things out anymore.

Hi, could you report a bug with a repro project attached and steps on how to reproduce your issue?

I’m having the same problem. It was all good and then it stopped recognizing MIrror for some reason after building and/or playing a the game. Fresh install of Unity 2020.2.4f1 and reinstall of VS Code which were working fine a second ago.

Fixed it by deleting the Mirror folder, closing VS Code and re-importing it from the Unity Package Manager. lol
