Question by herp johnson · Aug 14, 2012 at 04:57 AM · cloneassignthroughsend

How do I assign a script to a clone through another script?

I need to assign a script to a cloned missile that will allow it to explode on impact. What is the correct code to do this assignment through another script?

You can use AddComponent on the newly created clone

 var clone=Instantiate(......);
 clone.AddComponent(MyScript);

It wouldnt be a variable, you would just type the name of your script there. So if you have a script called $$anonymous$$issleExplosion, you would just type that name in the AddComponent overload.

 clone.AddComponent($$anonymous$$issleExplosion);

ah. thanks. It didnt work that way so I just put quotes around it and that fixed the problem.

The list of available scripts should come up while typing, i personally never use the String version because a string takes longer to process than the Component itself. But hey, if it works, it works :)

yeah. ok so now I have my clonescript added to the clone. my next step is to make an explosion through OnCollisionEnter. I'm instantiating an explosion clone but I don't know how to get the explosionPrefab. What should I put here to get the prefab?

var explosionPrefab : Transform = _;

Instantiate(explosionPrefab, transform.position, transform.rotation);
