Variables not showing in inspector

For a variable to show in the inspector, it has to be declared as a property of the class. Variables that are declared inside methods will not show up in the inspector. For example:

// $$anonymous$$yClass.js

var Speed:float = 0; // This will show in the inspector

function update()

{

 var speed:float = 0; // This will not show in the inspector

}

It's a good idea to always strongly type your variables as shown here. If you let the compiler try to guess a variable's type for you, then that can lead to undesirable behavior and bugs.
