Hi everyone,

I’m currently working on the 2D SRPG tutorial and have encountered some issues at step 9. When I test the game, the unit placement system works fine, but there’s no grid visible.



The problem arises after placing the last unit and selecting a unit to move. At this point, the game throws an error:

NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object

I’ve double-checked everything in steps 7 and 8 and can’t find any mistakes. Could someone please help me identify what I’m doing wrong?

Thanks in advance!

The error hints at an issue in your latest turn HUD, which was set up as part of the UI setup in tutorial 4.
Check the HUD if it's set up correctly (e.g. if the HUD's prefab is selected).

Yes that resolved it! Thanks again! Did it over a bit more thoroughly and found my error was there.
