Hi there! I'm trying to make my player respawn at a fixed spawnpoint. I want to have different spawnpoints along my level... here is my question: how can i pick up the cordinates of a taged gameobject? thanks

here is my script:

var spawnp=0;

function dead()
{
    if(spawnp == 0)
    { 
        transform.position.x = 0;
        transform.position.y = 12;
        transform.position.z = -9;
        transform.rotation.y = 0;
        }
    if(spawnp == 1)
    {
        transform.position.x = 0;
        transform.position.y = 26.0515;
        transform.position.z = 121.4297;
        transform.rotation.y = 0;

    }
    }
            Healthcontrol.LIVES -=1;
}

to get the coordinates of a gameobject's transform you need its position property like 

GameObject.Find("MyObject").Transform.Position

the Position property is a Vector3 object

hope this is the answer you are looking for

thanks, but it didn't work: Assets/scripts/respawnPlayer.js(68,49): BCE0034: Expressions in statements must only be executed for their side-effects.

what i meant was, to put your info in that order, like if(spawnp ==0){GameObject.Find("YourTransformToMove").Transform.Position = new Vector3(0,12,-9);} if(spawnp ==1){GameObject.Find("YourTransformToMove").Transform.Position = new Vector3(0,26.0515,121.4297);} note that the name "YourTransformToMove" should be replaced for the name of the transform you want to change its position like cube1, hero, mainchar or the name you used, i thought the answer i gave, was intuitive, my bad.
