I can't drag prefab gameobject into other prefab gameobject
Hi guys,
I'm trying to make a path for enemy in my game. To do this I created a List variable named waypoints. Then I tried to drag waypoints into this. But I can't drag them into it.
public class EnemyPath : MonoBehaviour
{
[SerializeField] List<Transform> waypoints;
}
Thanks advance for your interest
I think you are trying to add values directly into the PREFAB. Instead of that, click on the enemy gameobject in hierarchy window and add some values here.
Yes I'm trying to do that. But Why doesn't it work ? For example when I serialize a gameobject, I can add values directly into prefab . So what is the problem with this list variable ?
And yes, As you said, I added values in the hiearchy, but I can't apply it to the prefab from "overrides" tab (When I click "Apply all" to save changes to prefab , nothing happens)
I'm not sure why it's not possible but if List(Gameobject) works why you simply don't use List(Gameobject) instead of List(Transform) ? Gameobject it's just simple wrapper/container for other components that derives from $$anonymous$$onoBehavor...
So in your code you can just simply get your transform like:
[SerializeField]
List<GameObject> waypoints;
public void Start()
{
waypoints.ForEach(gobj =>
{
var myTransform = gobj.GetComponent<Transform>();
// or better
var mySameTransform = gobj.transform;
});
}
my 2 cents : From my point of view, populating class fields should not be allowed from hierarchy window (when we talking about prefabs). Every gameobject in hierarchy window BELONGS to current scene...
So there is question: what would happen if you instantiate SA$$anonymous$$E prefab in different scene where waypoint gameobject does not exist?
No, not list (gameobject). Just gameobject. Creating gameobject and set reference in hierarchy works.
