"Cannot convert 'UnityEngine.Transform' to 'UnityEngine.Vector3'." Error Message

[anon58498302]

I am a bit of a noob when it comes to coding, but I made two scripts, one is unfinished (I haven’t implemented the touch function yet) and one is finished and working. They both declare this at the start:

var lastPosition : Vector3;
var myTransform : Transform;

The first script works fine, no error messages whatsoever but the second one brings up a “Cannot convert ‘UnityEngine.Transform’ to ‘UnityEngine.Vector3’.” Error Messages at line 38 and line 50.

First Script:

var lastPosition : Vector3;
var myTransform : Transform;
var isMoving : boolean;
var LeftArm : GameObject;
var RightArm : GameObject;
var GameCamera : GameObject;
var MainCharacter : GameObject;

function Start() {
	myTransform = MainCharacter.transform;
	lastPosition = myTransform.position;
	LeftArm.animation["LeftArm"].wrapMode = WrapMode.Once;
	RightArm.animation["RightArm"].wrapMode = WrapMode.Once;
	GameCamera.animation["HeadBobLeft"].wrapMode = WrapMode.Once;
	isMoving = false;
} //This is declaring the variables at the start.

function Update()
{
 for (var touch : Touch in Input.touches)
  {
   if (guiTexture.HitTest (touch.position))
	{
//Does everything inside these comments if the GUI button is being touched.
     if(myTransform.position != lastPosition){
		isMoving = true;
		LeftArm.animation.Play("LeftArm");
		RightArm.animation.Play("RightArm");
		GameCamera.animation.Play("HeadBobLeft");
		lastPosition = myTransform.position;
	}
	
	else {
		isMoving = false;
		lastPosition = myTransform.position;
		}
//Does everything inside these comments if the GUI button is being touched.
	}
  }
}

The Second one, which is a little bit longer:

var leftArmPlayed : boolean = false;
var rightArmPlayed : boolean = false;
var leftBobPlayed : boolean = false;
var rightBobPlayed : boolean = false;
//Advanced variables.
var lastPosition : Vector3;
var myTransform : Transform;
var isMoving : boolean;
var LeftArm : GameObject;
var RightArm : GameObject;
var GameCamera : GameObject;
var MainCharacter : GameObject;
//General variables.

function Start() {
	myTransform = MainCharacter.transform;
	lastPosition = myTransform.position;
	LeftArm.animation["LeftUarm"].wrapMode = WrapMode.Once;
	LeftArm.animation["LeftDarm"].wrapMode = WrapMode.Once;
	RightArm.animation["RightUarm"].wrapMode = WrapMode.Once;
	RightArm.animation["RightDarm"].wrapMode = WrapMode.Once;
	GameCamera.animation["HeadBobLeft"].wrapMode = WrapMode.Once;
	GameCamera.animation["HeadBobRight"].wrapMode = WrapMode.Once;
	isMoving = false;
}
//Declaring all the variables at the start.

function Update(){

	if(myTransform != lastPosition && leftArmPlayed == true && LeftArm.animation.isPlaying == false && leftBobPlayed == true){
		LeftArm.animation.Play("LeftDarm");
		RightArm.animation.Play("RightUarm");
		GameCamera.animation.Play("HeadBobRight");
		leftArmPlayed = false;
		rightArmPlayed = true;
		leftBobPlayed = false;
		rightBobPlayed = true;
		lastPosition = myTransform;
		isMoving = true;
	}
	
	if(myTransform != lastPosition && rightArmPlayed == true && RightArm.animation.isPlaying == false && rightBobPlayed == true){
		LeftArm.animation.Play("LeftUarm");
		RightArm.animation.Play("RightDarm");
		GameCamera.animation.Play("HeadBobLeft");
		rightArmPlayed = false;
		leftArmPlayed = true;
		leftBobPlayed = false;
		rightBobPlayed = true;
		lastPosition = myTransform;
		isMoving = true;
	}
}

Line 38 should be:

lastPosition = myTransform.position;

Line 42 should have

myTransform.position = lastPosition;

Line 50 should be:

lastPosition = myTransform.position;

In each case, you need to add ‘.position’ to ‘myTransform’.
