List.Contains always false

Questions & Answers
1

I have a script in which I need to check if a string is present in a list

if(roomObj.GetComponent<Room>().positions.Contains("left"))
			{
				tempPos = new Position();
				tempPos.pos = "left";
				tempPos.rom = roomObj.GetComponent<Room>();
				availablePositions.Add(tempPos);
			}

But for some reason the List.Contains method always provides a false value. What is going one here?

I fixed this. I wasn’t setting the values of position before this section of script ran
