Selecting an object in the hierarchy is a pure editor feature. The code you use must call classes / functions from the UnityEditor namespace. Obviously, when you build, Unity complains.

You have to put every editor-only classes and functions between the following preprocessor directives (including the using UnityEditor; at the top of your script.

 #if UNITY_EDITOR
 // Editor-only classes & functions
 #endif
