Getting an empty gameobject to instantiate a prefab (c#)

Questions & Answers
1

I have this script attached to an empty gameobject.

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class buildingcreator : MonoBehaviour 
{
	public GameObject building;

	void start ()
	{
		Instantiate (building);
	}
}

I’ve set the prefab that will be instantiated in the inspector (the building variable) but when i run the game nothing happens. the prefab doesn’t appear.

whats wrong with the code?

The method names that the Unity Engine calls are case sensitive.

Your code has a lower case “start”.

It should be

 void Start ()
 {
     Instantiate (building);
 }

Otherwise the engine will not call it and you will not instantiate your prefab.
