An instance of a prefab teleports to 0,0,0 at the start of runtime

Question

I have tried the lazy quick fix of teleporting it to where I want every frame, that didn't work, I have an instance of a door prefab in the editor that appears to be at a reasonable height for a door, but as soon as I load in, the door is at 0,0,0, any ideas on how to fix this?

That is impossible. You either have a script, which meddles with the doors position at Awake or Start. Or you set its position using a custom editor instead of the normal Editor. Which means that the position will not be serialized within Unity and saved for later.

Is the door a creation of your own or did you get it from the store? Maybe it's got some internal logic you don't know about?

If you cannot find the script responsible, try using an empty parent object. Drag the door inside. Within this parent object the door can have a position of 0, 0, 0. But now you can reposition the parent object to where you need it.
