GameObject help

Would a script like

Gameobject1 = Gameobject 2

I’m trying to make a gameobject hold a different object when a method is called and for some reason the above line isn’t working for me.

You can point a GameObject reference at whatever GameObject you want.

Can you post your code using the forum code tags and copy/paste any errors so we can take a look at how you’re trying to do it? Or maybe this will be enough:

using UnityEngine;

public class GoGo : MonoBehaviour
{
    public GameObject gameObjectReference;

    public void SetReference(GameObject someGameObject)
    {
        gameObjectReference = someGameObject;
    }
}

like mopthrow say we need to see what went wrong in your script so we can investigate and fix it
there is no one way to do Gameobject1 = Gameobject 2 there ton of it with different context and purpose

As long as you understand the differences between reference types (GameObjects are such a thing) and value types (structs or integers or floats, for example). One is effectively a finger saying “I am that” and the other is a fresh copy.
