Public LevelManager level;

I had a few questions regarding creating a LevelManager object.

So I tried making my LevelManager private instead of public/drag and drop method, because my understanding was that since both scripts are in the same folder and I am just creating a LevelManager object why can’t I use

private LevelManager level;

level.loadLevel(“Lose”);

You can do that, you simply need to add a line to find your level manager in the scene:

private LevelManager level;

private void Start() {
    level = GameObject.FindObjectOfType<LevelManager>();
}

level.loadLevel(“Lose”);

Alternatively, you could create a LevelManager class that does not derive from MonoBehaviour and is not attached to a game object in your scene, in which case you need to instantiate it using the new keyword:

private LevelManager level = new LevelManager();

level.loadLevel(“Lose”);
