Rotate "ghost object" then instantiate object with that rotation

Questions & Answers
1

I have a script which has a “ghost object” of a object that will be instantiated, and I want to be able to rotate the ghost object and then instantiate with the same rotation as the ghostobject.

This is void Update()

if(Input.mousePosition != startingMousePosition)

        {

            RaycastHit hit;

            Ray ray = Camera.main.ScreenPointToRay(Input.mousePosition);

            if(Physics.Raycast(ray, out hit, Mathf.Infinity))

            {
				
				Debug.DrawLine( Camera.main.transform.position, hit.point, Color.red );
	       		//rayHitPoint = hit.point;

                Object1.transform.position = new Vector3(hit.point.x, hit.point.y, hit.point.z);
				
				if (Input.GetButton("RotateInst")){
					Debug.Log ("RotateInst cliked");
					Object1.transform.Rotate(Time.deltaTime, 1, 0);
				}

            }

And here is void RaycastToTerrain() (the important stuff)

RaycastHit hit;
    Ray rayPos = Camera.main.ScreenPointToRay( Input.mousePosition );
 
    if ( Physics.Raycast( rayPos, out hit, Mathf.Infinity ) ) 
    {
       Debug.DrawLine( Camera.main.transform.position, hit.point, Color.red );
       rayHitPoint = hit.point;
    }
	
	if(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Mouse0)){
		Debug.Log ("Instantiating Windmill.");
		Instantiate(Object1, hit.point, Quaternion.identity);
			
	}

As you can see in the Update function you press the button “RotateInst” (which is arrowkeys) to rotate the object. How do I give that rotation to the instantiate method?

Thanks!

If this “Ghost Object” is a existing game object in scene, just use its rotation…

Instantiate(Object1, hit.point, ghostobject.transform.rotation);
