Question by twiggintop15 · Mar 06, 2012 at 10:07 AM · gameobjectarraychildren

Find Child of GameObject from Array in Different Script

Ok so I dont know if this is possible but what I need to do is to find the Child of a GameObject that is referenced in one script from the array of another script. So to clarify, I fill an array in Script 1 with GameObjects.(all these gameobjects have same children of each other but are not instances).Script 2 gets Script 1 and then finds the GameObject in the array that it collided with. Now I need the child's position of the collided with GameObject. Any thoughts...

Script 1

public class Chain : MonoBehaviour { public GameObject[] chainLinks = new GameObject[6]; public GameObject linkBegin; public int pos = 0; // Use this for initialization void Start () { // First Link that all chains will follow chainLinks[pos] = linkBegin; pos++; } // Update is called once per frame void Update () { } void OnTriggerExit(Collider collisionInfo) { if(collisionInfo.gameObject.tag == "Link"){ chainLinks[pos] = collisionInfo.gameObject; pos++; } } }

Script 2

 //    Getting Chain.cs arrayList
     Chain chainScript = GameObject.FindWithTag("Player").GetComponent<Chain>();
     for(int i =0;i<chainScript.chainLinks.Length;i++){
         print(chainScript.chainLinks.Length);
         print(chainScript.chainLinks[i]);
         if(chainScript.chainLinks[i] == this.gameObject){
             //targ = chainScript.chainLinks[i-1].GetComponentInChildren<GameObject>();
             foreach(GameObject x in targ){
                 if(x.name == "NextLinkFollower"){
                     //target = x.transform;
                 }
             }
             //target = targ.Find("/NextLinkFollower").gameObject.transform;
             //target = targo.transform;
             break;
         }

     }

Where /NextLinkFollower is the child I am trying to get of the "Chain" scripts gameobject

Thanks
