Why isn't the best overload method not compatible with the arguments list?

I know that this is a common question here, but I’ve looked everywhere and I cannot find a solution anywhere. The exact error message is “The best overload for the method ‘SideWalls.ScoreSystem()’ is not compatible with the argument list ‘(String)’.”

The Code for Sidewall.js is

#pragma strict

function OnTriggerEnter2D (HitInfo : Collider2D) {
	if (HitInfo.name == "Ball") {
		
		 var wallName = transform.name;
		ScoreSystem (wallName);
	}
}

function ScoreSystem() {

}

and ScoreSystem.js is

#pragma strict

static var Player1Score : int = 0;
static var Player2Score : int = 0;
public var wallName : String;


static function Score (wallName : String) {
	if (wallName == "rightWall") {
		Player1Score += 1;
	}
	else {
		Player2Score += 1;
	}
	
	Debug.Log("Player 1: " + Player1Score);
	Debug.Log("Player 2: " + Player2Score);

}

This code:

function OnTriggerEnter2D (HitInfo : Collider2D) {
    if (HitInfo.name == "Ball") {
        
    var wallName = transform.name;
    ScoreSystem (wallName);
    }
}

function ScoreSystem() {

}

Is what’s causing the problem. You’ve got an (empty) function named “ScoreSystem”, that takes no arguments. In your OnTriggerEnter, you’re calling it with the wallName argument.

As to what you’re expecting ScoreSystem(wallName) to do, I’ve got no clue.
