Null Reference Error

For some reason I keep getting the Null Reference error for this line of code:

Code (CSharp):

1. voidOnTriggerEnter(Colliderother)
2. {
3. if (animation ["attck1"].enabled == true) {
4. SendMessage ("Damage", 1.0f, SendMessageOptions.DontRequireReceiver);
5. }
6. }

 

That's not a line that's a block.

1. voidOnTriggerEnter(Colliderother) - spaces

 

You spelled attack wrong.

"==true" isn't needed.

 

Copy pasting must have messed up with spaces. attck is the name of the animation. Thanks for the replies, I don't understand what you mean by arrays take integers not strings.

 

animation isn't an array. The indexer operator looks up the AnimationClip with that name.
http://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Animation.Index_operator.html

 

So how would I fix that?

 

"animation" might be null
There might be no animation clip named "attck1" in the animation component

Doing some logging/debugging of those things should tell you what's going on.
