Cannot get basic movement working

Beginner Questions
1

I followed the Unity Cookie A* RTS tutorial which looks similar to the very basic “getting started” tutorial found in the official docs. However, I am getting the following exception:

NullReferenceException: CharacterController.SimpleMove(Vector3.speed)

Here is the code in question

`// Find direction to next waypoint.
Vector3 dir = (_path.vectorPath[_currentWaypoint] - transform.position).normalized;
dir *= _speed * Time.fixedDeltaTime;

//MOVE!
_controller.SimpleMove(dir);`

I noticed that the very first waypoint generated is sitting directly at the location of my character’s transform.position, meaning that currentWaypoint - transform.position == 0,0,0 which of course cannot be scaled by the speed factor.

Why is the first waypoint sitting on top of my character’s starting position?

Fixed. Controller was mis-assigned.
