Find 1st child of root
root
child 1
child 2
child 3
from a script on child 3 how do i find child 1. Note i cant use GameObject.Find("Child1") because this is a prefab thus there will be more than one instance of this.
should be:
child1 = transform.root.transform;
from unity script reference: transform.root returns the topmost transform in the hierarchy.
thats why the addidional ".transform" is there, to get the first child
or take
transform.root.GetChild(0);
im using it in the OnTriggerEnter function so
child1 = col.transform.root.transform;
does not work

// FINDS JOINT 2 OF THE CURRENT VINE SO YOU CAN USE IT FOR SWINGING LATER ON
//============================================================================
var tempHolder : Transform;
tempHolder = col.transform.parent;
for(var i=0; i<15; i++)
{
if( tempHolder.name == "joint2" )
{
joint2 = tempHolder;
break;
}
else
{
tempHolder = col.transform.parent;
}
}
//============================================================================
transform.parent.parent
yes if it will always be the 3rd child that calls this.
what is i dont know how many children there will be? would need a loop for this wont i?
If you want a loop, you'd better loop the other way around from root where you can access the childCount
