API - How to get an existing component?

[RickPalo]

I have a GameObject (named "Player") with an attached SplineController.  Based on user input, I want to start/stop movement along the spline.  I tried to reference the controler

Code:

controller = GameObject.Find("Player").GetComponent("SplineController")

but I get an error that the result is a Component instead of a SplineController.  What is the correct way to access an object that already exists?

Hi,

This is a question regarding Uniy in general, and not Curvy Splines in particular. For such questions, I recommend using perplexity.ai, which gives sourced answers.

For example, it gave me the following answer to your question, which is the correct one:

Thanks, 
I'll give that a try.
