How to delete instantiated GameObject
I have a simple question , how can I delete a cloned or instantiated object after 1 second without deleting the original. The GameObject is just a 3d object with no scripts attached. All I want to do is instantiate an object at certain coordinates when required and destroy it after 1 second. Any help will be appreciated

DEAR @Srimasis: Is there anything else related to we could do for you? - If so, please tell us. Else please tick an answer if it helped you solve your problem to keep the board clean and tidy (it's a way of saying THAN$$anonymous$$ YOU for taking the time to answer and help me), if nothing helped you, then we really appreciate FEEDBAC$$anonymous$$.
Here's a c# example. In this example, I define a GameObject where you will assign a prefab or original to in the inspector. Then we'll 'clone' the object, and instantiate a new instance of it, then destroy it after one second.
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
public class Example : MonoBehaviour
{
public GameObject original;
void Awake()
{
GameObject clone = (GameObject)Instantiate (original, transform.position, Quaternion.identity);
Destroy (clone, 1.0f);
}
}
Here's how you could do the same as above, but in Javascript (Unityscript).
#pragma strict
var original : GameObject;
function Awake()
{
var clone = Instantiate (original, transform.position, Quaternion.identity);
Destroy (clone, 1.0);
}

Thanks brother but I have a doubt, what if I declare the variable clone as an array, I have to make multiple clones.
You don't just instantiate an array. Say you have a gameObject array with 10 gameObjects. You'd say something like:
var gameObjectArray : GameObject[];
var clone = Instantiate(gameObjectArray[3], transform.position, Quaternion.identity);
This is how you would for example, grab the 4th object from your array and create a new instance.
clunk47 used right code. It works. The GameObject clone means the instantiated clone of the original GameObject. And Destroy(clone, 1.0f) means that destroy the clone GameObject after 1 second. Thanks clunk47.
GameObject mMyClone = (GameObject)GameObject.Instantiate(mOriginalObject); //Create the clone of mOriginalObject
GameObject.Destroy(mMyClone);//Destroy the Clone
GameObject.DestroyImmediate(mMyClone);//Destroy without waiting for GC (I think?)
var myVar = Instantiate(go, position, rotation);
Destroy(myVar, 1);
If you "got it", please ACCEPT THE ANSWER that best addresses your question.
You can simply nested it into a Destroy function and set the second argument with 1 "seconds" . Destroy( Instantiate(Dust, transform.position, transform.rotation), 1);
