Question by ASHTEC-GAMES · Sep 07, 2016 at 03:47 PM · gameobjectparentingparent-childtransform.parenttranform.position

Setting the parent of a transform which resides in a prefab is disabled to prevent data corruption - Help Needed Urgently

Having an issue which has me pretty frustrated, have been through code numerous times and can see no mistakes at all and matches the code given perfectly as far as I can tell, however while defenders launch projectiles I am getting a weird behaviour.

The projectiles are not becoming a child to the Projectiles game object as they should, and I am getting the error message in the console saying "Setting the parent of a transform which resides in a prefab is disabled to prevent data corruption"

The code looks spot on as far as I can tell, and I am dragging prefabs to prefabs so cannot work this out at all, below is image of the error warning

Had a similar problem. It's important that projectileParent is defined before the Fire() is called.

Script defining parent

 Start()
 {
  // Defining the fireprojectiles parent
  GetComponent<FireScript>().projectileParent = this.transform;
 }

Script calling fire

 Start()
 {
  // Calling fire at start for test purposes
  GetComponent<Fire>().Fire();
 }

The problem is that it may run the script calling fire first since all scripts with Start() doesn't run in a specific order. Therefore the solution (to my problem atleast) would be:

Script defining parent

 Awake()
 {
  // Defining the fireprojectiles parent
  GetComponent<FireScript>().projectileParent = this.transform;
 }

Script calling fire

 Start()
 {
  // Calling fire at start for test purposes
  GetComponent<Fire>().Fire();
 }

I know it's a half year ago this question was posted, but I bet someone else will screw up as bad as I did.
