I think you're supposed to use the GetComponent command...

You can't really add in scripts like that...

If you want, you can actually put the whole script in there too?

But for GetComponent, you can add the actual script to the object, so you have 2 scripts attatched and use:

otherScript = GetComponent(OtherScript); 

OtherScript being the name of the script you're trying to access.

If the script is on a different object, something like this'll work:

transform.Find("Hand").GetComponent(OtherScript).DoSomething("Hello");

You can read about more here: http://unity3d.com/support/documentation/ScriptReference/index.Accessing_Other_Game_Objects.html

Good luck =).

Yes ;)

Though I use this:

GameObject.Find("Main Camera").GetComponent(Camera).enabled = false;//I am switching off the camera of the Main Camera

Instead of 'Camera' you can put there the name of your script without "" or anything.

I posted the code for enabling/disabling components in general.

One advise, if you do Find(), do it at the very begining and keep the reference in a variable for later use.

Cheers
