Gameobjects move towards a moving object c#

Questions & Answers

I’m trying to get the following gameobjects to move towards another (my player), the only problem is with the following code, they only move towards its starting position. Where as I want them to be pulled towards where ever the player currently is. Any help would be appreciated.

public Transform player;
	float speed = 5.0f;

	void Update () {
		if (PlayerScript.pulltime > 0)
		transform.position = Vector3.MoveTowards(transform.position, player.position, speed*Time.deltaTime);

	}

The Players movement script is as follows:

void moveship ()
	{
		if (Input.GetKey (KeyCode.UpArrow))
			moveshipUp ();
		if (Input.GetKey (KeyCode.DownArrow))
			moveshipDown ();
		if (Input.GetKey (KeyCode.RightArrow))
			moveshipLeft ();
		if (Input.GetKey (KeyCode.LeftArrow))
			moveshipRight ();
	}
	void moveshipUp ()
	{
		if (this.transform.position.y < 3.4) {
			this.transform.Translate (Vector3.up * speed * Time.deltaTime, Space.World);
		}
	}
	void moveshipDown ()
	{
		if (this.transform.position.y > -4.388) {
			this.transform.Translate (Vector3.down * speed * Time.deltaTime, Space.World);
		}
	}
	void moveshipLeft ()
	{
		if (this.transform.position.x < 8.23) {
			this.transform.Translate (Vector3.right * speed * Time.deltaTime, Space.World);
		}
	}
	void moveshipRight ()
	{
		if (this.transform.position.x > -8.284) {
			this.transform.Translate (-Vector3.right * speed * Time.deltaTime, Space.World);
		}
	}

It should be following it’s updated movement, but it doesn’t.

try setting player as a GameObject and access it’s position by player.transform.position
