Inconsistent accessibility: field type 'world' is less accessible than field 'frmSplashScreen

I have this error called Inconsistent accessibility:

field type 'world' is less accessible than field 'frmSplashScreen'

In my code there is a public partial class called frmSplashScreen

There is also a public class called world

The line that caused the error was: 

private world currentWorld;

The above line is in the class frmSplashScreen

What is causing the problem?

Solution

  • Generally this happens because your field is private. You must change it to public:

    public world currentWorld;
