Solution 2

You have two methods called Update in the PlayerController class, plus a dummy class declaration. Judging by this and your other question you would do well to spend some time with a good C# tutorial.

In C# a change in the return type does not make two methods have a sufficiently different signature that you can declare two of them and the system will sort out for you which one you meant to use when you use it. To do that, you need to supply different parameters, either in terms of count, order, or type.

In addition, your second version of the Update method will not compile as it does not at any point return an instance of the Animator class.
