pointer not working/not being accessed

[PeteriPhoneNoob]

Hello!

I'm trying to connect a pointer from one .m file to another but it doesn't seem to recoqnize it.

For example....

I'm trying to connect my a pointer from my main menu.m to my Game.m. it get's successfully build but it still doesn't seem to access that pointer.

What am I forgetting or doing wrong?

Thanks in advance!

MainMenu.h

BOOL NewGame;

@property (nonatomic) IBOutlet BOOL NewGame;

MainMenu.m

//Reset playerscore and gamestate
-(IBAction)NewGame{
	
         NewGame = YES; //Should be recognized from the Game.m file
	[audio stop];
	audio.numberOfLoops = 0;
	[audio release];
	NSLog(@"New");
	back.hidden = YES;
	newgame.hidden = YES;
	continuegame.hidden = YES;
	korridor1.hidden = NO;
	fackla.hidden = YES;
	Start.hidden = YES;
	option.hidden = YES;
	howtoplay.hidden = YES;
	SFXimage.hidden = YES; 
	Musicimage.hidden = YES;  
	[UIView beginAnimations:@"korridor_1.png" context:nil];
	[UIView setAnimationDuration:1];
	korridor1.transform = CGAffineTransformMakeScale(13,13);
	korridor1.alpha = 1.0f;
	[UIView commitAnimations];
	
	
	//The Game begins
	[NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:1.5 target:self selector:@selector(GameView) userInfo:nil repeats:NO];
	
}

game.h

#import "MainMenu.h"

@class MainMenu;

//Pointer to the MainMenu
MainMenu *mainmenu;

@property (nonatomic, retain) IBOutlet MainMenu *mainmenu;

game.m

// Implement viewDidLoad to do additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
- (void)viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];
	
	if(mainmenu.NewGame == YES){ //this doesn't get recognized
	
	//The game starts after 8 sec
	timer = [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:8 target:self selector:@selector(StartGame) userInfo:nil repeats:NO];
	}

       else{
       NSlog(@"resume");
}
}
