Question by godfreyidk · Mar 20, 2018 at 08:03 PM · references relative rotation relative movement

Does a game object referenced in-script, automatically become a "local" origin point?

Consider the case where you created a reference variable for some game object within a script, then link that game object to the reference via the inspector. Does that referenced game object automatically become the local origin to which all movement and rotation of the scripts game object will be relative to?
