Add Instantiated object to a method in another class

I am very, VERY new to using Unity and Visual Studio. But in one of my classes, CellGrid, I have the method:

Code (CSharp):

1.  public void AddUnit(Transform unit)
2.     {
3.         unit.GetComponent<Unit>().UnitClicked += OnUnitClicked;
4.         unit.GetComponent<Unit>().UnitDestroyed += OnUnitDestroyed;
5.  
6.         if(UnitAdded != null)
7.             UnitAdded.Invoke(this, new UnitCreatedEventArgs(unit));
8.     }
9.  

In another class, I instantiate a unit to the scene. Apparently I need to run that unit through this other method in order for the game to accept it as an actual player controlled piece. What I wrote was this:

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2.  
3. GameObject summon = GetComponent<CardDisplay>().modelAnim;
4.  
5. Vector3 mousePos = new Vector3(Input.mousePosition.x, Input.mousePosition.y, 0f);
6.  
7.         Vector3 worldPos;
8.         Ray ray = Camera.main.ScreenPointToRay(mousePos);
9.         RaycastHit hit;
10.         if (Physics.Raycast(ray, out hit, 1000f))
11.         {
12.             worldPos = hit.point;
13.         }
14.         else
15.         {
16.             worldPos = Camera.main.ScreenToWorldPoint(mousePos);
17.         }
18. Instantiate(summon, worldPos, Quaternion.identity, units.transform);
19.  
20.        CellGrid.AddUnit(summon.transform);
21.  

The instantiate works perfectly. I used a Vector3 and ScreenToWorldPoint to place it where I want and put it in the parent I want. But the 'CellGrid.AddUnit(summon.transform);' portion is busted. It wont even run unless I remove it completely.

Help?

 

You're using the prefab/original in the AddUnit call, not the clone that comes from Instantiate. You want this:

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. GameObject clone = Instantiate(summon, worldPos, Quaternion.identity, units.transform);
3. CellGrid.AddUnit(clone.transform);
4.  

Hopefully that'll fix whatever issue you're having. "It's busted" is a bit hard to diagnose.

 

Nevermind... I'm just a noob. I didn't directly reference CellGrid in that script yet, so of course it wasn't going to work.
