    How to change Tag by scripting?

    I want if enemy dead, I want to change its tag from [enemy] to another or untagged. Thus become no more enemy.

    Can I do this?

    As long as the Tag exists, you can access and set it with:

    transform.gameObject.tag = "SomeTagName";

    Does it have to have the transform infront of the GameObject ?

    Or can it be gameObject.tag = "SomeTagName"; ? :D

    It's probably a bot.
