Here's a simplified example to explain my problem in Javascript: I have a super-class: And a sub-class which inherits from my super-class: And finally, a 3rd class: 1) How comes myText equals "mySuperClass"? Surely it should run the mySubClass.run() method instead of the mySuperClass.run() method? 2) Is there any way to make it so that the super-class can never be instantiated (I know interface and abstract isn't supported)?

I appear to have solved this myself. I needed to make the functions in my superclass 'virtual' functions ... for some reason I thought virtual wasn't supported in Javascript, and thus I am a fool ;) The Unity implementation of JavaScript isn't actually JavaScript. It's more... just the syntax of JavaScript adopted to .NET/Mono. It's a pretty poor implementation, too, if you ask me. C# is a whole lot easier to understand and code with in the long run.

If we could vote up comments, I would vote up SpikeX's comment. Mono JS is just enough like your browser's JS to be annoying (and too different to be useful as a "javascript implementation " IMHO). If you are doing anything serious you should seriously consider using C#. It's more structured, but like Spike said, that buys you a lot in the long run.

It worked ok for me, but I had to adjust it slightly to get it to compile. I realize you have simplified it for the example, but it may have lost something in translation.
class mySuperClass { static function run() { return "mySuperClass run"; } }
class mySubClass extends mySuperClass { static function run() { return "mySubClass run"; } }
var aClass;
function Start() { aClass = new mySubClass(); } function Update() { Debug.Log(aClass); //This displays the text 'mySubClass' var myText = aClass.run(); Debug.Log("myText = " + myText); }
Thanks for your time Molix. I've managed to solve the problem ... I don't think the example I gave actually had the problem I was having in my actual code. Making my superclass functions Virtual solved the problem. Again, thanks for the effort!
