Using .Translate() on one variable moves a different var, how? and how do i stop this?

Question

 var newPos : Transform;
 var rayPos : Transform;
 newPos = curTile.transform;
 newPos.Rotate(Vector3(0,(i*30),0));
 newPos.Translate(newPos.forward * 1.6f);
 newPos.Rotate(Vector3(0,(0-(i*30)),0));
 rayPos = newPos;
 rayPos.Translate(rayPos.up * 2);

Using the above script the last line translates the newPos variable, why does it do this, and how can i stop it.

Kind Regards David

You're setting rayPos as a reference to the newPos variable, so essentially they are the same. If you mean to make rayPos have the same position as newPos, then use transform.position.
