Making one gameobject equal to another gameobject?
what will happen if we make one gameobject equal to another gameobject? (gameobject1=gameobject2)
Assume that both gameobjects have several scripts attached to them and both gameobjects have a few children. PS: gameobject1 and gameobject2 are both from different prefabs.
If you do gameObject1=gameObject2, you will lose the reference to the actual gameObject1, and both variables will point to the same object (meaning, if you destroy gameObject2, gameObject1 will also become null).
Also note that gameObject1 doesn't go away. Like Danny said, you just lose the variable reference to it.
Is there an easy way to set one GO to equal another?
eg. I have a dummy object that (filler/default figure GO) that I want to replace with the players chosen figure at runtime after the selection is made.
I want to take the empty "Face" GO and replace it with user selected "Face" GO without having to replace the mesh, the materials etc all individually.
as stated above setting them = just moves assignment around, rather than replacing the 'dummy' GO with the selected
GameObject gameobject2 = Instantiate(gameobject1) is what you need , just set the gameobject2 parent to the same as the gameobject1 same for the local position and rotation so that it's in the same positions as the go1 then destroy the gameobject1
Well, it's quite heavy for your scene and really sketchy but you can make 2 object with the same x,y,z values and then switch which one is active when you need it, but it's like patchwork and I don't really like it. It's "KIND OF" a solution...
Well If someone knows how to do it properly I would be glad 'cause i need it to... <3
