Instantiate an object next to the player?

Questions & Answers

I’m trying to Instantiate an object near to the player if at all possible, can anyone shed some light on this?

Could I use:

var player : Transform; ? Then add that to the vector3 somehow?

	var object : Transform;

	function CreateObject()
    {
	Instantiate (prefab, Vector3(0, 0, 0), Quaternion.identity);
    }

That creates an object at the origin, replace Vector3(0, 0, 0) with something like player.transform.position + Vector3(4, 1, 0) as long as you replace prefab with object.

You need to instantiate the object with the position of the player’s Transform. Currently you are creating it at the world zero (0, 0, 0). Try this.

var player : Transform;
var object : Transform;

function CreateObject()
{
  Instantiate(prefab, player.position, Quaternion.identity);
}
