move a object hit by raycast
I hit a gameObject with my raycast by the help of assinging a tag. Now i want to get the gameObject i hit and move it to a position via the same script. How would i be able to do that?
hit.gameObject.transform.position doesnt work but i want it to look something like that.
This might not work, but I suggest you want it to look something like this! To get better answers, expand the question or ultimately provide examples of your code/scene.
Be sure to raycast properly.
var hitGO : GameObject;
hitGO = hit.gameObject;
Update(){
var camera = GetComponent.<Camera>();
var mousePos = camera.ScreenToWorldPoint(Input.mousePosition);
}
if ( Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0) ){
hitGO.transform.position = Vector3(mousePos.x,transform.position.y,mousePos.z);
}
i used your advice and made it work! i also write in c# so here is the solution:
after u cast the ray if in the if statement:
//call the variable of the gameObject GameObject block = hit.collider.gameObject; //use the new variable and transform its position block.transform.position = new Vector3(transform.position.x,transform.position.y, -1); //or etc
the thing to do was to call the gameObject variable after u use the raycast in the same {}. then set it to hit.collider.gameObject ins$$anonymous$$d of hit.gameObject or else it will be error.
Thanks!
Do something like this,
In other object which you want to move ,Add move functionality, if you want constantly move object then use Vector3.lerp or Vector3.MoveTowards + coroutines else use rigidbody.AddForce
Once object hit by ray cast do this,
if(hit.gameobject.tag == "DesireObject")
{
//run this function
hit.gameObject.getComponent<MovementScript>().movementFUnction();
}
Hope that help you, let me know if you still face same problem.
Its not entirely what i was looking for as im going to change static objects, but this script is this still really good and i think i will make use of it later.
Thanks!
