expecting :, found '=' in checkpoint script

Hey everyone. I’m having a weird issue with my checkpoint script. In the transform.position = vector3 command it continues to tell me I need to replace the = with : … This is really getting on my nerves. I’ve looked through the script over and over but am lost with it. Any help would be much appreciated.

    private var originalSpawn : boolean = true;
    private var respawn2 : boolean;
    private var respawn1 : boolean;

    function OnTriggerEnter(hit : Collider)
    enter code here
    {

    if (other.gameObject.tag == "Checkpoint1")

    {
    originalSpawn = false;
    respawn1 = true;
    respawn2 = false;
}

    if (respawn1 == true)

{
    {
    

transform.position = Vector3(187.2115, 15.21173, 158.192);
    }
}

if (other.gameObject.tag == "Checkpoint2")
{
    originalSpawn = false;
    respawn2 = true;
    respawn1 = false;
}

if (respawn2 == true)
{
    {
        transform.position = Vector3(187.2115, 15.21173, 14.37813);
    }
}
}

Hey there, just quickly pointing out a problem with your formatting in UA …

function OnTriggerEnter(hit : Collider)
enter code here
{

Just saying …

Anyway, aside from that. The problem was you were inserting extra braces around the two transform.position = Vector3(187.2115, 15.21173, 14.37813); lines, messing up your function and confusing the compiler. Here’s the script sans extra braces and enter code here:

  private var originalSpawn : boolean = true;
    private var respawn2 : boolean;
    private var respawn1 : boolean;

    function OnTriggerEnter(hit : Collider)
    {

    if (other.gameObject.tag == "Checkpoint1")

    {
    originalSpawn = false;
    respawn1 = true;
    respawn2 = false;
}

    if (respawn1 == true)
    {


transform.position = Vector3(187.2115, 15.21173, 158.192);
}

if (other.gameObject.tag == "Checkpoint2")
{
    originalSpawn = false;
    respawn2 = true;
    respawn1 = false;
}

if (respawn2 == true)
{
        transform.position = Vector3(187.2115, 15.21173, 14.37813);
}
}

Good luck with your game! Klep
