Unity cannot find component of an object in an array.

Question

The Code:

     private var resetObjects=new Array(11);
     private var resetPositions=new Vector3[11];
     
     function Awake(){
      resetObjects=GameObject.FindGameObjectsWithTag("Pins");
      resetObjects.Push(GameObject.Find("Ball"));
      var a=0;
      for(var obj in resetObjects)
      {
      resetPositions[a++]=obj.transform.position; //Error
      }
      
     }

Console Error: Assets/PlayerController.js(16,41): BCE0019: 'transform' is not a member of 'Object'.

What is the Error and how to solve it?

Thank You in advance.

You should use a List. which can be dynamically sized, is strongly typed and supports the same access format.

  import System.Collections.Generic;

    ...


    var resetObjects = new List.<GameObject>();

Array is really not a good idea - but if you insist you can cast the value like this

    resetPositions[a++] = (obj as GameObject).transform.position;

You can use an Array of Game Objects (GameObject[]) instead of using Array() or cast the type of obj to GameObject

Then i cannot add another GameObject to that array after using that FindGameObjectsWithTag function.
