Hi @white_falcon, welcome to the community

Could you post you code instead of screenshots of parts of it, it doesn’t help anyone to help you if they can’t see everything.

You can just copy/paste your code directly into the forum and then apply code formatting characters. Screenshots are however useful for error messages and editor details.

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.UI;
public class AdventureGame : MonoBehaviour {

    [SerializeField] Text textComponet;
    [SerializeField] State StartingState;

    State state;

    // Use this for initialization
    void Start() {
        state = StartingState;
        textComponet.text = state.GetStateStory();
       
	}
	
	// Update is called once per frame
	void Update () {
        ManageStates();
	}
    private void ManageStates()
    {
        var nextSates = state.GetNextStates();
        if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Alpha1))
        {
            state = nextStates[0];
        } 
        else if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Alpha2))
        {
            state = nextSates[1];
        }
        textComponent.text = state.GetStateStory();
    }
}

here is the full code

and here is a full photo for it

Hi,

Your issues are typos.

If you look at the code you have copy and pasted in, you have spelt “component” as “componet”, you use this in the Start method, so you get away with it, but then in the ManageStates method you use spell it differently again (correctly).

You have the same issue with “nextStates” being spelt incorrectly, “nextSates” in your ManageStates method.

Again - you don’t need to add screenshots of code - they don’t really help - they are almost unreadable on mobile devices and require a lot of scrolling around - copy/paste your code and apply the code formatting characters to help us (and you) out

Hope the above helps

ty a lot Sir
