Before i rotate or move this object, i insantiate all of them with using Record() method and if user want to take back action with using Undo() method, all objects including its clones is destroyed, so i dont want to destroy clone objects. how to break connection between gameobject and its clone. Sorry for my english thanks in advance. Here is the code

 public Gameobject boxes, boxesCopy;
    public void Record(){
    		if (boxesCopy != null) {
    			Destroy (boxesCopy);
    		}
    		boxesCopy=Instantiate(boxes);
    		boxesCopy.SetActive (false);
    	}
    public void Undo(){
    		Transform[] realChildren = boxes.GetComponentsInChildren<Transform>();
                    foreach (Transform child in realChildren)
    		{
    			Destroy (child.gameObject);
    		}
    		Transform[] copyChildren = boxesCopy.GetComponentsInChildren<Transform>();
    		foreach (Transform child in copyChildren)
    		{
    			child.transform.parent = boxes.transform;

hi, there is probably numerous ways to do, but for me, it’s simple. To attach an object, you do.

public bool if_Is_True;

Void Update()
{
if ( if_Is_True == true)
{ object_1.transform.parent = _player.transform // will attach object_1 to _player…
}
else
{
object_1.transform.SetParent(null); // will detach object_1 from _Player.
}

So if you want to detach an object, juste add. object_1.transform.SetParent (null).

it work perfecly fine for me, to detaching trees from the base log, or Player to a Cart and moving both together.
