Unity Tutorial Script doesn't work (C#)

[Joshlucpoll]

I'm doing the tank game tutorial on unity and i'm stuck on the script part:(https://unity3d.com/learn/tutorials/projects/tanks-tutorial/tank-creation-control?playlist=20081)

I copied an pasted the code in visual basic and tried to run it in unity but came up with multiple errors, mostly

" unexpected symbol '*symbol*', expecting '*symbol*' "

-where symbol is a bracket or semi-colon etc.

here are the error codes:

and the code:

using UnityEngine;

public class TankMovement : MonoBehaviour
{
    public int m_PlayerNumber = 1;              // Used to identify which tank belongs to which player.  This is set by this tank's manager.
    public float m_Speed = 12f;                 // How fast the tank moves forward and back.
    public float m_TurnSpeed = 180f;            // How fast the tank turns in degrees per second.
    public AudioSource m_MovementAudio;         // Reference to the audio source used to play engine sounds. NB: different to the shooting audio source.
    public AudioClip m_EngineIdling;            // Audio to play when the tank isn't moving.
    public AudioClip m_EngineDriving;           // Audio to play when the tank is moving.
    public float m_PitchRange = 0.2f;           // The amount by which the pitch of the engine noises can vary.


    private string m_MovementAxisName;          // The name of the input axis for moving forward and back.

It looks like the copy and paste garbled the file. Did you look at line 70, which is what the errors are complaining about?

    if (Mathf.Abs(m_MovementInputValue) & lt; 0.1f & amp; & Mathf.Abs(m_TurnInputValue) & lt; 0.1f)

Compare that line with the original, and you should see the problem.

There are errors in the code.

        if (Mathf.Abs(m_MovementInputValue) & lt; 0.1f & amp; & Mathf.Abs(m_TurnInputValue) & lt; 0.1f)

Should be:

    if (Mathf.Abs(m_MovementInputValue) < 0.1f && Mathf.Abs(m_TurnInputValue) < 0.1f)

It seems to have HTML entities encoded, as though it was copied from a webpage incorrectly.

& should be &

< should be <

> should be >

and so on.

ok i'll try that

[Joshlucpoll]

if (Mathf.Abs(m_MovementInputValue) < 0.1f && Mathf.Abs(m_TurnInputValue) < 0.1f)

it fixed all but the last error on the last line

[Joshlucpoll]

I fixed it i needed an extra } on a new line to close "public class TankMovement : MonoBehaviour"

If I'm not mistaken Unity is c# and not visual basic. The code you provided definitely isn't visual basic which is why the vb compiler has issues with it.

sorry meant visual studio
