code for items landing on tray and moving with tray

Question

Hi, I am a new person with Unity and I am going through the Udemy course. I am doing a lot of reading ( much of it over my head). I am currently researching how to have an item fall and get caught and stay on the "tray" while it moves in a 2d game. I found this on one question and the answer was :

http://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Transform.SetParent.html ObjectC.SetParent(ObjectD, true); Tray somethin like that.

so now I am trying this but

        Paddle.Parent (FriesBomb, true);

                  but Paddle is black, Bomb is black, true is blue and Parent is Red
                so before I can try the game I need Parent black or to see if this works.

this is the error code: error CS1061: Type UnityEngine.GameObject' does not contain a definition for Parent' and no extension method Parent' of type UnityEngine.GameObject' could be found. Are you missing an assembly reference?

Hi thank you for responding, yes I had "SetParent" but tried something else just in case. It is still Red. Yes I have read that over and over but that did not work either. hence my frustration.

You're trying to call a function that doesn't exist. It's SetParent() not Parent () Also SetParent() does not take a Boolean. What you're looking for is

 Paddle.SetParent (FriesBomb);

I suggest you read over http://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Transform.SetParent.html again
