Question by SixPence · Apr 11, 2013 at 05:08 AM · prefabsinstantiation

Attacking a Prefab

Instantiation of a player prefab is not recognizing an Instantiated enemy prefab.

   void Update () 
     {
     if(Vector3.Distance(transform.position, Enemy_Troop.transform.position) <100 && 
     Vector3.Distance(transform.position, Enemy_Troop.transform.position) > 1)
     {
         transform.LookAt(Enemy_Troop.transform);
         transform.Translate(Vector3.forward * speed * Time.smoothDeltaTime);
         Debug.Log ("hit");
         FightDistance = true;
         Fighting ();
     }
                     
     if(health == 0)
     {
         Destroy (gameObject);
     }

 //Tidy up code:  Easier to read and easier to adjust
 float distance = Vector3.Distance(transform.position, Enemy_Troop.transform.position);
     if(distance < 100 && distance > 1)

And what is = Enemy_Troop Is this a variable somewhere in this script? Like: Transform Enemy_Troop; If so, it's good practice to write variables like enemyTroop or _EnemyTroop (Easier to read when things get complicated.

And if both this script and enemy script have been instantiated in game, you wont have any connection between the two as far as I can see in this code.
