Question by Evamushroomeva · Dec 17, 2015 at 09:49 PM · teleportteleportinggamecontrollermaincamera

Teleporting MainCamera and GameController

In attempting to teleport GameContoller and MainCamera (MainCamera is a child to GameController) once it touches the object "Door", I tried to use this script:

 using UnityEngine;
 using System.Collections;
 
 public class Teleport : MonoBehaviour {
 
     void OnTriggerEnter (Collider other)
     {
         if (other.name == "Door")
         {
             other.transform.position = new Vector3(300,100,0);
             GetComponent<Camera>().main.transform.position = new Vector3 (300,100,0);
         }
     }
 }

I received the following error message. I'm at a total loss as to what I messed up on, and I just need to know if I'm remotely headed in the right direction, and how to fix this. Thanks in advance for any help.

Error: Scripts/Teleport.cs(11,48): error CS0176: Static member `UnityEngine.Camera.main' cannot be accessed with an instance reference, qualify it with a type name instead

Static member `UnityEngine.Camera.main' cannot be accessed with an instance reference

 GetComponent<Camera>().main // Eek! Error. 'main' is a static member, not an instance member.

qualify it with a type name instead

 Camera.main.transform.position = new Vector3 (300, 100, 0);
