No Parent?

Question

I have a Object called "Planet(clone)" (clone because its get instantiated) and it has a child called GravRad!

 var lol;
 function OnTriggerEnter(gr : Collider){
 if(gr.transform.gameObject.name == "GravRad"){
 gr.transform.parent.gameObject.name == lol;
 Debug.Log(lol);
 }

However in the console it says null but it has a parent in the hierarchy! oh and i have set trigger enter on and i tested without a parent and it works (so the only thing that is not working is the gr.transform.parent.gameObject.name == lol;

Try this. Based on the comments.

I'm assuming that you are trying to get the name of the parent.

 var parentName;
 
 function OnTriggerEnter(gr : Collider){
     if(gr.transform.gameObject.name == "GravRad"){
         parentName = gr.transform.parent.name;
         Debug.Log(parentName);
     } 
 }
