Is there a way that "childs" don't follow "parent" object?

Hi,

Every "Enemie" (GameObject) should have an own path it should follow.
So every Enemy got a list of childs (= node1, node2, node3,...) which represents its path.
I can move the Enemie to path node1, but while moving to it the other nodes are moving with the Enemie so that the original position of the nodes are changing. Is there a way thay the child nodes stay at there init. position while only the parent (enemie) is moving?!

Thx for help.

 

No,there isn't.
think about changing your structure

 

ok...thx

 

You can have the children not follow their parent by manually updating their global transforms in Update or FixedUpdate. But if that's the behavior you want, then why are you parenting them in the first place?

 

I think he wants it so that you can still have a structured hierarchy. For example you might have some waypoint transforms for an enemy and instead of putting them randomly in your hierarchy you would group them under the enemy they correspond to, thing is, if you do so, then they move with the enemy and the enemy will never reach a waypoint..

 

If these nodes just store a world position, then I'd replace your system with just a list of Vector3's. Otherwise I would unparent these nodes and put them under a separate GameObject the enemy keeps a reference to.
