Miniplatformer Update problem

Im getting this warning everytime I try to work with my miniplatformer based game, Ive been working around with it, but I think I have to get it fixed.
the code which generates this warning is this:
trompo/gameScripts/player.cs (319): Unable to find object: '' attempting to call function 'updateMovement'
the code which generates this warning is this:
function t2dSceneGraph::onUpdateScene()
{
if ($gameInProgress){
$pGuy.updateMovement();
}
}

Well.. that variable is stated in the level editor and the level.onloaded callback so Is not supposed to be empty
To be honest I have no idea how to do that. Could you give me an example?

Thanks for answering.You're getting the error because $pGuy is equal to the empty string.

You probably also want to name the scenegraph and call onUpdateScene on that namespace instead of the namespace of the type itself.

2. Open your .t2d file and change "new t2dSceneGraph()" to "new t2dSceneGraph(myT2dScene)" and change "t2dSceneGraph::onUpdateScene()" to "myT2dScene::onUpdateScene(%this)"

1. Figure out why $pGuy is empty2. Open your .t2d file and change "new t2dSceneGraph()" to "new t2dSceneGraph(myT2dScene)" and change "t2dSceneGraph::onUpdateScene()" to "myT2dScene::onUpdateScene(%this)"

Additionally, you need a %this in your arg list for onUpdateScene. You probably also want to name the scenegraph and call onUpdateScene on that namespace instead of the namespace of the type itself.
