    Hi,

    In the following code from the script reference pages here I'm confused over where OtherScript is coming from. Can someone explain please?

    Thanks.

    Code (csharp):
    1.  
    2. function Start () {
    3. // By name
    4. var go = GameObject.Find("SomeGuy");
    5. go.GetComponent(OtherScript).DoSomething();
    6.  
    7. // By tag
    8. var player = GameObject.FindWithTag("Player");
    9. player.GetComponent(OtherScript).DoSomething();
    10. }
    11.
