    So I'm attaching an object to another as it's child at runtime using this code:
    Code (CSharp):
    1. other.transform.SetParent(gameObject.transform);
    What happens is this:

    I instead want the stick to rotate with the capsule.
    Thanks!

    Something else has to be effecting the rotation of the smaller object there. There's no constraints or anything on it?

    That did it! I'm sorry for asking dumb question but I'm very new to Unity :)
