Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State Error CS0029 Cannot implicitly convert type 'PlayerHealth' to 'UnityEngine.ParticleSystem' Assembly-CSharp.Player C:\survival game\Assets\EnemyAttack.cs 13 Active

Hello, I made a game on Unity 3D, and I used to make the player's health and make the enemy kill him, but this error appeared to me (the enemy I imported it from unity asset store and I did not create it, and he is supposed to have something like a hammer and he has an animation to hit with it, but I did not know how to do it The merging comes from the hammer, and this script is for merging a weapon.)

the enemy attack code

using System.Collections;  
using System.Collections.Generic;  
using UnityEngine;  
  
public class EnemyAttack : MonoBehaviour  
{  
    PlayerHealth player;  
    public float damage = 10f;  
    public ParticleSystem gunFlash;  
  
    private void start()  
    {  
        gunFlash = FindObjectOfType<PlayerHealth>();  
    }  
    public void AttackHitEvent()  
    {  
        gunFlash.Play();  
        player.TakeDamage(damage);  
    }  
}

and player health code

using System.Collections;  
using System.Collections.Generic;  
using UnityEngine;  
  
public class PlayerHealth : MonoBehaviour  
{  
 public float hitPoints = 100f;  
  
   public void TakeDamage(float damage)  
    {  
        hitPoints -= damage;  
        if(hitPoints <= 0)  
        {  
            Debug.Log("you are dead");  
        }  
    }  
}

and the code of enemy ai if you want it

using System.Collections;  
using System.Collections.Generic;  
using UnityEngine;  
using UnityEngine.AI;  
public class EnemyAI : MonoBehaviour  
{  
    public Transform player;  
    NavMeshAgent navMeshAgent;  
    // Start is called before the first frame update  
    void Start()  
    {  
        navMeshAgent = GetComponent<NavMeshAgent>();   
    }  
  
    // Update is called once per frame  
    void Update()  
    {  
        navMeshAgent.SetDestination(player.position);  
    }  
}

To solve the compiler error, probably you can change the line 13 to:

gunFlash = FindObjectOfType<ParticleSystem>();

or to

player= FindObjectOfType<PlayerHealth>();

Or maybe you should also consider the GetComponent and make sure that both of gunFlash and player are initialised correctly.
