Weird Variable Scrope Problem

[RangerDog]

So basically in start, I am assigning DayNightController

    void Start()
    {
        DayNightController dayNightScript = DayNightCycle.GetComponent<DayNightController>();
    }

Then, when i try to access it anywhere else.

dayNightScript.daySpeedMultiplier = 0.05f;

It doesn’t recognize dayNightScript, doesnt matter where i put it, not sure why it does this…
(Its probably something simple, just cant come up with it XD)

“Then, when i try to access it anywhere else.” Do you mean trying to access it outside Start()? That’s not possible, it’s only known in that method. You have to declare it outside:

public class YourClass : MonoBehaviour
{
    DayNightController dayNightScript;
   void Start()
    {
        dayNightScript = DayNightCycle.GetComponent<DayNightController>();
    }
}
