Hello! This error is happening again.
It seems to be triggered when I extract a method in Visual Studio. For some reason, this doesn’t work in the way that it does in the video - when I highlight the code I want to extract and right click > extract, it doesn’t go automatically to the name of the new method… for some reason it seems to be selecting Terminal instead, and then the ClearScreen becomes an error.
I poked around and it seems that when I extract the method it’s renaming this method in Terminal.cs to the name of the method I’m trying to extract?!
public static void ClearScreen()
{
primaryTerminal.displayBuffer.Clear();
}
I’m using a Mac. What’s going wrong here?
Here is the code from my Hacker.cs file:
using UnityEngine;
public class Hacker : MonoBehaviour {
// Game configuration data
string[] level1passwords = { "bookmark", "shelf", "loan", "hardback", "nap" };
string[] level2passwords = { "officer", "siren", "handcuffs", "complaint", "donuts", "arrest" };
string[] level3passwords = { "rocket", "planet", "comet", "asteroid"};
// Game states
int level;
enum Screen { MainMenu, Password, Win };
Screen currentScreen;
string password;
void Start ()
{
ShowMainMenu();
}
void ShowMainMenu()
{
currentScreen = Screen.MainMenu;
Terminal.ClearScreen();
Terminal.WriteLine("What would you like to hack into?");
Terminal.WriteLine("Press 1 for the local library");
Terminal.WriteLine("Press 2 for the police station");
Terminal.WriteLine("Press 3 for NASA");
Terminal.WriteLine("Type menu at any time to return to the start");
}
// the user presses a key here, so the computer runs OnUserInput
// OnUserInput checks which screen we're on
// If we're on the Main Menu screen, it checks for a level selection - using RunMainMenu
// If we're already on a level, it checks for a password - using CheckPassword

if (input == "menu")

ShowMainMenu();

{

AskForPassword();
}
else
{
Terminal.WriteLine("Not an option, sorry");
}
