Question by Digital-Phantom · Feb 04, 2015 at 03:17 PM · errorgameobjecttransformsetactiveunityengine.object

Need workaround for this line of code

Been trying to use/convert an old C# script on youtube tutorial into javascript for use in my project. All was going well until I $$anonymous$$t t$$anonymous$$s line of code -

 CurrentlySelectedUnit.transform.FindC$$anonymous$$ld("Selected").gameObject.active = false;
 
 CurrentlySelectedUnit = null;
 

W$$anonymous$$ch gave me t$$anonymous$$s error -

"Assets/Scripts/MousePoint 2.js(24,82): BCW0012: WARNING: 'UnityEngine.GameObject.active' is obsolete. GameObject.active is obsolete. Use GameObject.SetActive(), GameObject.activeSelf or GameObject.activeInHierarchy.

if I use 'GameObject.SetActive' I get t$$anonymous$$s error -

"Assets/Scripts/MousePoint 2.js(24,71): BCE0019: 'GameObject' is not a member of 'UnityEngine.Transform'. "

If I use 'GameObject.activeSelf' I get the same error -

"Assets/Scripts/MousePoint 2.js(24,71): BCE0019: 'GameObject' is not a member of 'UnityEngine.Transform'. "

And if I use 'GameObject.activeInHierarchy' I get the same again.

How can I fix t$$anonymous$$s as the only solutions it gives me, causes more errors ???

use gameObject instead of GameObject ? I don't know the java syntax though so don't trust me.

Maybe like t$$anonymous$$s?

  CurrentlySelectedUnit.transform.FindC$$anonymous$$ld("Selected").gameObject.setActive(false);

not tested it though but I t$$anonymous$$nk that should work
