How to get enum values from another script (Unity)

Question

I\'m currently having a trouble of getting the value of my enum from another script here\'s my script that handles the enum

TrafficLightHandler.cs

Answer 1

To be able to use the other script you need to retrieve it as any other component using GetComponent<TCompoenent>().

If both scripts are attached to the same gameObject then just use current gameObject

var tlh = gameObject.GetComponent<TrafficLightHandler>();
...
tlh.Trafficlight

Otherwise, if scripts are attached to different object then you need the reference to the holder of that script to do actual retrieval.

public GameObject otherScriptHolder;
var tlh = otherScriptHolder.GetComponent<TrafficLightHandler>();
...
tlh.Trafficlight
