Instantiate with a scriptable wizard

Question

First of all, I must apologise for the sheer volume of questions I've been putting up around this topic. I must thanks everyone who's answered, and I'm considering putting up the end result for the community as a though of thank-you. Anyway, here is the question this time: I've got the ScriptableWizard working. But how does the Instantiate command work? It doesn't work for me - what do I need to do? Script:

class CityWizard extends ScriptableWizard { var building : GameObject; @MenuItem("GameObject/City!") static function City (){ ScriptableWizard.DisplayWizard("Title", CityWizard, "City", ""); } function OnWizardCreate() {

     Instantiate (building, Vector3(0,0,0) , Vector3(0,0,0));

print ("City...");

Thank you!

mmm... you missed some parts I guess. Try this one in C#:

using UnityEditor; using UnityEngine;

class WizardCity : ScriptableWizard {
    public GameObject building;

 [MenuItem ("GameObject/City")]
 static void CreateWizard () {
     ScriptableWizard.DisplayWizard&lt;WizardCity&gt;("City", "Create");
 }
 void OnWizardCreate () {
     Instantiate(building,Vector3.zero,Quaternion.identity);
 }  
 void OnWizardUpdate () {
     helpString = "Please assign a prefab/GameObject to instantiate";
 }

The last argument of the Instantiate function is a quaternion not a vector3.

Here is the JS:

class CityWizard extends ScriptableWizard {
    var building:GameObject;
    @MenuItem ("GameObject/CityWizard")
    static function CreateWizard () {
    ScriptableWizard.DisplayWizard("City Wizard", CityWizard, "Create");
    }
    function OnWizardCreate () {
        Instantiate(building,Vector3.zero,Quaternion.identity);
    }  
    function OnWizardUpdate () {
        helpString = "Please assign a prefab/GameObject to instantiate";
    }   
}

$$anonymous$$ine is in Javascript, not C#.

But your last sentence was the answer! Thanks!

I think the problem was in you instantiate function, as I said, you used Vector3 for rotation which won't work it must be Quaternion.

Oh...just thought of something else...how would I repeat the instantiation once per frame? Would I put it in the OnWizardUpdate?
