Cannot explicitly call operator or accesor

If I try to compile something like this in visual studio I get this compiler error "'LightingManager.time.set' Cannot explicitly call operator or accsesor"
I am very new to coding and I know some basics and this is the only problem I have run in to. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

Code:

if (GUI.Button(new Rect(60f, 80f, 80f, 20f), "Set Day"))
				{
					LightingManager.set_time(15);
                                }

I have the same issue. :S

It throws an error due to the func being read-only. You need to use reflection to change the value.

What about this?

Code:

LightningManager.time = value;

What about this?

Code:

LightningManager.time = value;

Kr4ken, Kunii, as a coder you really should've known that

I think you meant LightingManger instead of LightningManager, and anyway LightingManager.time is a method not a variable.

I'm going to try and learn about reflections. However, I'm confused because I decompiled a working unturned unity hack and it had a lot of get functions like the one i originally posted. If I tried to compile it I would get the same errors, but the hack still worked. I'm just wondering how the person who made it was able to get by the issue?

Edit
Is it just a problem with the decompiler that caused this?

Yeah that was a typo xD

LightingManager.time is not a method, neither a variable. It is a property with both getter and setter, so you can implicitly call the setter by assigning a value to it as you would do with a variable.

Just use the method I suggested, I use it exactly that way in my private hack, works like a charm.
