Setting Position of Spawned Prefab

Questions & Answers

Hey guys, I thought this would be relatively simple, but can’t seem to grasp it.

I have:

    if (GUI.Button (Rect (Screen.width/2-50, 125, 100, 30), "Floor")) {
 var instance : GameObject = Instantiate(Resources.Load("Floor", GameObject));
}

and tried

instance.transform.position = positionvariable;

and that did not work. Any ideas? I tried finding online but got nothing! Thanks ahead of time!

Your variable instance is declared inside the if-statement. Therefore, it is not available outside its scope.

At least that’s how it works with C#, I’m not sure whether the behaviour is the same with UnityScript.

Yeah that should work perfectly fine. This shouldn’t make a difference but try setting the position when you instantiate it via

Instantiate(Resources.Load("Floor", GameObject), positionvariable, Quaternion.Identity);
