Inventory System: NullReferenceException Error

Hey guys, i seem to be non stop getting this NullReferenceException Error for nearly every single thing i code, ive asked numerous times on this forum and no one has ever replied, First it was with basic doors, had to re-write the whole script, for that to work, then it was using a sliding bookcase every time i interacted with the bookcase i will get this error, then it was a secret switch that got the same error, then it was with a key script i was using to unlock doors, the key when attempted to pick it up would give me this error, and now that i am reworking the whole key script to actually have an inventory, not just destroy the key and unlock the door, got everything setup using this tutorial Unity 3D Inventory System Full i am now up to part 5 and have become completely stuck, have been following this to the exact step through out the whole series, and now I’m getting that same annoying error when i attempt to pick the key up, the error points to something that helps me in no way to try and rectify this issue, I’ve gone back through the series twice now to see if i missed something, and no, i haven’t, everything is exactly how the youtuber has it, but mine just magically causes me issues, as it always has when I’ve tried to interact with items, i even went to a point of instead of using an actual key object, to copy the EXACT same way the youtuber did it with a cube rather than an actual object but still the same error, i honestly cant understand what I’m doing wrong, how can i mess up every piece of code i do, that gives me the exact same error every single time, for every single script, this is the error i am receiving, it in no way explains what is wrong, and my script is exactly the same as the youtubers, besides he is using 5+ items and I’m just trying to at least get 1 single item to work, before i bother putting myself through multiple errors at a time.

this error leads to this script

import System.Collections.Generic;

private var _gameManager : GameObject;
private var _player : GameObject;

private var _items : Items;
private var _inv : Inventory;

private var _canGet : boolean = false;

function Start() {
    _gameManager = GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("GameManager");
    _player = GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("Player");

    _items = _gameManager.GetComponent(Items);
    _inv = _player.GetComponent(Inventory);
}

function Update () {
    if(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.E) && _canGet){
        _inv.mainInvetoryList.Add(_items.itemsList[0]); //HERE IS THE ERROR
        Destroy(gameObject);
    }
}

function OnTriggerEnter (other : Collider){
    if(other.gameObject.tag == "Player"){
        _canGet = true;
    }
}

function OnTriggerExit (other : Collider){
    if(other.gameObject.tag == "Player"){
        _canGet = false;
    }
}

    function OnGUI(){
        if(_canGet){
            GUI.Box(new Rect(Screen.width / 2 - 75, Screen.height - 100, 200, 30), "Press 'E' to Pickup " + this.name);
        }
    }

i just need a good kick in the right direction as to why i am ALWAYS… AAALLLLWWWAAAAYYYYSSS getting this error, so i can stop it from f**king everything I’m trying to achieve in almost every script. is it because I’m using outdated tutorials, because honestly this is all i have, its so, SOOO hard to get any help with this sort of stuff and i can’t learn without being taught, i cant be the only person getting this error, and if i am, then what am i doing that makes this error come out? it seems to only ever be when I’m using Entry Colliders and Raycasts on Colliders when Interacting with them.

I know this is going to make a Huge question even bigger, but these are my current scripts for my inventory system…

any kick in the right direction, or even an explanation as to why i always get this error is much appreciated and may just set me on the right track and allow me to further fix future issues like this. I’m just so SICK of seeing this error, because it helps me in no way as to what it is that’s actually wrong, I’ve searched and looked at almost every article about this error and it doesn’t make sense as its nothing related to why I’m getting my error… Thank you very much for taking your time to read this, hopefully i can get this sorted to get my Development back on track.

You’ve written:

_inv.mainInvetoryList.Add(_items.itemsList[0]);

instead of:

_inv.mainInventoryList.Add(_items.itemsList[0]);
