I am making a game in Unity and I want to display the lives the player has left on the screen. I keep getting the error: "Cannot implicitly convert type `string' to UnityEngine.GUIText" in Unity when I compile the code shown below. I have seen the Update function in the Message class work seamlessly exactly like that in a tutorial so I don't know what my problem is.
public class GameManager : MonoBehaviour
public static int lives = 3;
//
public class Message : MonoBehaviour
public Text scoreText;
void Update()
scoreText.text = "Lives: " + GameManager.lives.ToString();

Hey and welcome to StackOverflow! I copy pasted your code and it works flawlessly on my machine. Have you tried restarting Unity and Visual Studio (or whatever IDE you use) and test it again? Sometimes this helps. The error message is a little odd tho. It states you useUnityEngine.GUIText, which is different from theUnityEngine.UI.Textcomponent. You got any idea where that comes from?

Restarting Unity did the trick! The code started working seamlessly after the restart. Thanks a lot for the answers!
