How do I loop through a Text file to build array of 2 objects per line in file?

Questions & Answers

Been trying this today without success

In my text file I m loading, I have the following lines

-0.4, 0.0, 1.4 : tv
0.3, -0.3, 0.4 : bathroom
0.4, -0.1, 0.1 : kitchen
0.2, -1.7, 1.4 : mancave
etc
I am trying to loop through each line and have

I tried :

   string[] array = text.Split(':');
        position = StringToVector3(array[0]);
        foreach (string token in array)

        //for (int i = 0; i < lines2.Length ; i++)
        {
            print(token);
            GameObject go2 = Instantiate(prefab, new Vector3(position), Quaternion.identity);
            //str = gst.GetComponent<Text>().text;
        }

But it fails on position which I thought I could assign to array[0] which is converted from StringToVector

ANy advice, help would be appreciated.

Code not tested

     string[] lines = text.Split('

‘);
for(int i = 0 ; i < lines.Length ; ++i)
{
string array = lines*.Split(’:');*
Vector3 position = StringToVector3(array[0].Trim());
GameObject go = Instantiate(prefab, position, Quaternion.identity);
go.name = array[1].Trim();
}
