Instantiating and setting localScale doesn't work
Hello! In this script in my game, when my player triggers a collision it will set off a trap that throws one knife/kunai at the player with a chance to throw a second in another direction. I am instantiating the second kunai and changing its scale using the code below, and the debug.log confirms that the local scale is 1, -1, 1. But the object according to the inspector stays at 1, 1, 1, which isn't what I need.
public GameObject laserKunai;
void OnTriggerEnter2D(Collider2D other)
{
if (other.CompareTag("Throw"))
{
Instantiate(laserKunai, gameObject.transform.position, Quaternion.identity);
if (Random.value > 0.5)
{
GameObject secondLaserKunai = Instantiate(laserKunai, gameObject.transform.position, Quaternion.identity) as GameObject;
secondLaserKunai.transform.localScale = new Vector3(1, -1, 1);
Debug.Log(secondLaserKunai.transform.localScale);
}
}
}
The laserKunai object has a child object attached to it which holds the sprite renderer and the animator, so I don't think it is an animation related issue, but I'm stumped on this one so any help would be amazing!
When you look in the hierarchy, are you looking at the clone or at the uninstantiated object? @chrisd313
