Can someone help me fix this script up?

Question

So i've been wanting to create an infinate runner game but I need this script to co-op with me. It says that I have many errors but all I did was copy the script from a video and in the video the guy does it and then he can play his game instantly.

Here is the script :

 using UnityEngine;
 
 [RequireComponent(typeof(PlatformerCharacter2D))]
 public class Platformer2DUserControl : MonoBehavior
 (
     private PlatformerCharacter2D character;
     private bool jump;
 
 
     void awake()
     {
         character = GetComponent<Platformer2DUserControl>();
     }
 
     void Update ()
     {
         // Read the jump input in Update so button presses aren't missed.
         if (CrossPLatformInput.GetButtonDown("Jump"))
             jump = true;
     }
 
     void FixedUpdate()
     {
         //read the inputs.
         //bool crouch = Input.GetKey(KeyCode.LeftControl);
         //float h = CrossPlatformInput.GetAxis("Horizontal");
 
         // Pass all parameters to the character control script.
         character.Move ( 1, false, jump );
 
         // Reset the jump input once it has been used.
         jump = false;
     }
 }

Answer 1

Hi @fun4foes, I found 3 errors:

Classes body begin with { not with (
Methods have to begin with a capital letter (okay the don't "have to" but methods like Awake and Update are called by Unity and these methods are defined with a starting capital letter) If I'm right in C# it's a convention to start methods with a capital letter
I think its CrossP l atformInput not CrossP L atformInput

so here the corrected code (not tested but I think that's it)

 using UnityEngine;
 
 [RequireComponent(typeof(PlatformerCharacter2D))]
 public class Platformer2DUserControl : MonoBehavior 
 {
  private PlatformerCharacter2D character;
  private bool jump;
 
  //Methods like Awake and Update, must begin with a capital letter
  void Awake()
  {
      character = GetComponent<Platformer2DUserControl>();
  }
  void Update ()
  {
      // Read the jump input in Update so button presses aren't missed.
     // --> I think its CrossPlatformInput not CrossPLatformInput
     if (CrossPlatformInput.GetButtonDown("Jump"))
          jump = true;
  }
  void FixedUpdate()
  {
      //read the inputs.
      //bool crouch = Input.GetKey(KeyCode.LeftControl);
      //float h = CrossPlatformInput.GetAxis("Horizontal");
      // Pass all parameters to the character control script.
      character.Move ( 1, false, jump );
      // Reset the jump input once it has been used.
      jump = false;
  }
 }

Awake needs to be capitalized. CrossPlatformInput, not CrossPLatformInput

Google works faster than unity answers...
