Enemy Not Spawning

[Christian_Heffernan]

When i play my Level scene the enemy spawn fine but if i load the scene from the start menu no enemy spawn.
this is the error that pops up

NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object
EnemyPathing.move () (at Assets/scripts/EnemyPathing.cs:31)
EnemyPathing.Update () (at Assets/scripts/EnemyPathing.cs:20)

and the EnemyPathing script

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;

public class EnemyPathing : MonoBehaviour
{
    waveconfig waveConfig;
    List<Transform> waypoints;
    int waypointIndex = 0;

    private void Start()
    {
        waypoints = waveConfig.GetWaypoints();
        transform.position = waypoints[waypointIndex].transform.position; 

    }

    private void Update()
    {
        move();

    }

    public void SetWaveConfig(waveconfig waveConfig)
    {
        this.waveConfig = waveConfig;
    }

    private void move()
    {
        if (waypointIndex <= waypoints.Count - 1)
        {
            var targetPosition = waypoints[waypointIndex].transform.position;
            var movementThisFrame = waveConfig.GetMoveSpeed() * Time.deltaTime;
            transform.position = Vector2.MoveTowards
                (transform.position, targetPosition, movementThisFrame);

            if (transform.position == targetPosition)
            {
                waypointIndex++;
            }

        }
        else
        {
            Destroy(gameObject);
        }
    }
}

also the waves in the wave Configs list disappear when loading from the menu

playing from level 1 scene

playing after loading from start menu

please help iv been trying to figure this one out for a while now

thank you

I have fixed the problem after a lot of time spent trying to figure it out i ended up just copy and pasting the code from the lecture the only difference i could see was i was missing capital letters for waveConfig and not sure if it makes a difference bu i renamed some scripts .

Thank you Rob for your help and anyone else who spent time reading my problem.
