Copy rotation values in between objects.

Question

I need to coppy the rotation values of an object to other objects ingame.

I wrote :

 var target : Transform;
 
 function Update () {
     transform.rotation.x = target.transform.rotation.x;
     transform.rotation.y = target.transform.rotation.y;
     transform.rotation.z = target.transform.rotation.z;
 }

But it doesn't work. The Rotations do update but they are not 1:1 the same and vary within a 40° range on all axis. This is way to much. How else could I do it? Parents don't Work since there are several objects depending on a single one, all with a big offset and transforming the parents rotation only causes the Objects to shift regarding their offset.

 Vector3 newRotation = new Vector3(go2.transform.eulerAngles.x, go2.transform.eulerAngles.x, go2.transform.eulerAngles.z);
 gameObject.transform.eulerAngles = newRotation;

Or the following (untested)

 Vector3 newRotation = gameObject.transform.rotation.eulerAngles;

Took me ages to figure out what didn't work. Was in JS ins$$anonymous$$d of C# :P Fail. Also you had x twice. But thats fine :D In the end, this is what I was looking for. Thank you :D

     void Update () {
         var target = GameObject.Find("center");
         Vector3 newRotation = new Vector3(target.transform.eulerAngles.x, target.transform.eulerAngles.y, target.transform.eulerAngles.z);
         this.transform.eulerAngles = newRotation;
     }
