Question by Fredycom · Nov 13, 2015 at 09:50 PM · script.spawningcheckpoint

Spawning Script Error

Here are my 2 scripts I am trying to create to make my Game object Spawn to a certain place, But I am getting this error.

Assets/Checkpoint.js(8,42): BCE0020: An instance of type 'UnityEngine.Transform' is required to access non static member 'position'.

Here is the first script for the checkpoint system:

 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 #pragma strict

 static var  ReachedPoint : Vector3; 

 function OnTriggerEnter (col : Collider) 
 {
 if (col.tag == "Player")
 {    if(UnityEngine.Transform.position.x > ReachedPoint.x )
 {
         ReachedPoint = transform.position;
     }
     
 }
 
 }

 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

here is the script for the Ball Health system that uses the Checkpoint Script:

 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 #pragma strict

 var maxFallDistance = -10;
 private var isRestarting = false;

 function Update () {

 if(transform.position.y <= maxFallDistance)
 {
     if (isRestarting == false)
     {
         RestartLevel();
     }
  
  
  }    
 
   }    
 
  function RestartLevel (){
  isRestarting = true;
  //Application.LoadLevel("Level 01");
  transform.position = Checkpoint.ReachedPoint;
   }

 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Do any of you know how to fix this error? Or what is wrong with any of the scripts?

An instance of type 'UnityEngine.Transform' is required to access non static member 'position'.

Error is saying you need to use an instance of Transform.

 // Change this line:
 if(UnityEngine.Transform.position.x > ReachedPoint.x )

 // To this:
 if(transform.position.x > ReachedPoint.x )
