Parenting Bullet Holes?

Questions & Answers
1

I have a prefab object that is a plane with a bullet hole texture on it. I can shoot objects just fine and spawn bullet holes where my ray cast hits, but my bullet holes are not following the object that I shoot. I am not sure what to do. What I do know what to do is to use the lines of code in the given piece of code:

if(decalHitEnemy && hit.transform.tag == "Enemy")
		{
			Instantiate(decalHitEnemy, hit.point + (hit.normal * floatInFrontOfWall), Quaternion.LookRotation(hit.normal));
			Instantiate(enemyHitParticle, hit.point + (hit.normal * floatInFrontOfWall), Quaternion.LookRotation(hit.normal));
			
		}

What you have to do is parent the bullet holes to the object they hit.

Example:

//Lets make the prefab a Transform for ease of use
var prefab:Transform;

// At the start of your script create a temporary variable
private var tmpObject:Transform;

//When you instantiate you set the return to that variable
tmpObject = Instantiate(prefab, /*your code here*/);

//You then Make what it hit, the parent
tmpObject.parent = hit.transform;

//If you'r prefab is of a type other than Transform, you will have to access the transform before you can apply the parent
tmpObject.transform.parent = hit.transform;

If your objects scale is changed, you will have to come up with a work around, but for now it will work
