error C60: Unknown method: getParentEntityId()

Why do I get this error when I attach my script to my object?

Nevermind I figured it out. Anyone else getting this error just change it from sim.getParentEntityId() to getParentEntityId() cuz its a method of the script class not the sim class

It's a method of the Entity class, not Script. Script extends Entity.

^I meant as in its a method of the class Script as opposed to class Sim

I know, I meant that it is in fact not a method of Script. It's an inherited method from Entity. I know how you are thinking about it, but I don't know what somebody else reading this might be thinking.

It may seem a picky difference, but I don't know who may read this and get the wrong idea. If somebody goes to override the method, it's better to know that it's not a method of Script, and that Script may have already overridden the method. This can prevent errors down the road in case Script did something that might affect your script.

I don't honestly think anybody will try to override that method, but I've stopped underestimating what your average person will try to do anymore. I'm always disappointed.
