Question by MrSteve1 · Nov 28, 2013 at 04:51 PM · gameobjectinstantiatecomponent

Get Component on Instantiated Object

Hi Guys and girls!

I am having an unusual issue. So far the script looks like this.

 var ozzy : GameObject;
 var portalPlacer : PortalPlacer;
 
 function Start() 
 {
     ozzy = GameObject.Find("Ozzy");
     portalPlacer = ozzy.GetComponent(PortalPlacer);
 }

Nothing fancy yet, but for some reason it will not get the Script attached to the game object names "Ozzy". Normally I would write GameObject.Find("Ozzy").GetComponent(PortalPlacer); but I was experiencing issues so wrote this way for now.

I have used code like this for ages, but I think this is the first time it's been on an object that is instantiated and is also attached to a child, but anyway.

It finds the Game Object Ozzy, but wont get the script!

Can anyone offer advice?

Thanks in advance!

Didn't really get your point, but you could try debugging it:

 var ozzy : GameObject;
 var portalPlacer : PortalPlacer = null;
 
 function Start() 
 {
     while (!portalPlacer)
     {
      ozzy = GameObject.Find("Ozzy");
      portalPlacer = ozzy.GetComponent(PortalPlacer);
      Debug.Log ("portalPlacer not found");
      yield;
     }
     Debug.Log ("portalPlacer found!!!");
 }

Didn't try the code though.

When you select the Ozzy game object and watch the inspector, do you see the script ? could you make a screenshot of your inspector please ?

Try this

     portalPlacer = ozzy.GetComponent<PortalPlacer>();
