Destroying child of prefab

Unity Engine
1

How can I destroy the child of a prefab… I’ve been trying…

Destroy(transform.Find("MainCamera"));

Where main camera is the child of the prefab.

The script is attached to a prefab and the MainCamera is a child of a child of a child of a child of the parent… if that makes sense… so quite deep down the hierarchy.

do i need to specify the hierarchy in any way?

Tarsus.

If i rember right then you have to set the path to the child also.

You also have to remember to detach the child before you destroy it.

I think you want GetComponent not Find. You might also try the following link. I’ve not tried it myself.
