    I keep getting an error that says: “error CS0246: The type or namespace name ‘PlayerControler’ could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)” while trying to make the camera follow script.

    My spelling is all correct.

    Any solutions?

    Hey there, Handsome Youngman! 😊

    The error you’re encountering, “CS0246: The type or namespace name ‘PlayerControler’ could not be found,” usually indicates that the compiler can’t find the class or type you’re trying to reference. Here are a few things you can check to resolve this issue:

    1. Check Spelling: Even though you mentioned your spelling is correct, double-check the spelling of PlayerControler. It looks like it might be a typo for PlayerController. Make sure the class name matches exactly, including capitalization.

    2. Namespace: If PlayerController is defined in a different namespace, make sure you include the appropriate using directive at the top of your script. For example:

      using YourNamespace; // Replace with the actual namespace
    3. Class Definition: Ensure that the PlayerController class is defined in your project and is accessible from the script where you’re trying to use it. If it’s in another script, make sure that script is compiled and there are no errors in it.

    4. Assembly References: If you’re using multiple assemblies, ensure that the assembly containing PlayerController is referenced in the assembly where you’re trying to use it.

    5. Script Compilation Order: If you’re working in Unity, sometimes the order in which scripts are compiled can cause issues. Make sure that the script containing PlayerController is compiled before the script that references it.

    6. Rebuild the Project: Sometimes, simply rebuilding the project can resolve issues with missing references. Try cleaning and rebuilding your project.

    If you’ve checked all of these and are still having issues, feel free to share the relevant code snippets, and I’ll be happy to help you troubleshoot further! 🐸✨

    Hi Handsome, this usually happens when you have a mismatch between your file name and your class name. For example, your script may be named:

    PlayerControler.cs

    And the actual class is:

    public class PlayerControl**l**er : MonoBehaviour

    Basically a small typo.
