AI spawner problem

Questions & Answers

Hi, I have a simple “AI spawner” code:

`using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Threading;
using UnityEngine;

public class SpawnScript : MonoBehaviour
{

public GameObject botPrefab;
GameObject botPref;
public string botName;
public bool inResp;
public bool makeBot;

void Start()
{
    
}

void Update()
{
    if (inResp == true)
    {
        makeBot = false;
    }
    else if (inResp == false)
    {
        makeBot = true;
    }

    if (makeBot == true)
    {
        botPref = Instantiate(botPrefab, this.transform.position + this.transform.forward, this.transform.rotation);
        botPref.name = botName;
        makeBot = false;
    }
}

void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other)
{
    GameObject go = other.transform.gameObject;

    if (go != null)
    {
        inResp = true;
    }
    else
    {
        inResp = false;
    }
}

}`

This works fine, but when creating a bot, bot transform.position.z always has +1 than transform.position.z spawner. For example, if the spawner’s position is x = 500, y = 1, z = 500, when it creates a bot, it creates it at x = 500, y = 1, z = 501.
As a result, it always creates several bots until it detects an object within itself (OnTriggerEnter).

How do I tell him to create a bot in himself? Spawner is a cube that is a trigger

Could you reset the transform of botPrefab? Possibly the prefab itself in one forward on the z axis, causing it to look like it spawns at 501, instead of 500.

I was able to fix the problem by adding this line of code

botPref.transform.position = this.transform.position;
