Problem with trigger and setting new position for object

I have an object that has both Collider2D and Rigidbody2D attached. I am able to recognize what i need to recognize in regards to the trigger piece. What i want is to move objects that is dragged onto the collider-object to be moved to Vector3(0f, 0f, 0f).

I have tested all kinds of different ways to achieve this but not succeeded. If i place a button on the scene with the same reference with the new position it works but not when i try to do it automatically.

I have tested many different ways with limited success.

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. void Update () {
3.  
4.     if (stopCard == false) {
5.  
6.           if (checkPosGameObject != null) {
7.               print ("stopCard == false: " + checkPosGameObject.tag);
8.               checkPosGameObject.transform.position = newVector3(0f, 0f, 0f);
9.               print ("The pos: " + checkPosGameObject.transform.position);
10.               stopCard = true;
11.  
12.         }
13.     }
14. }
15.  
16. void OnTriggerEnter2D(Collider2D col) {
17.      print ("OnTriggerEnter2D");
18.      checkPosGameObject = GameObject.FindWithTag (col.tag);
19.      print (checkPosGameObject.tag);
20.      stopCard = false;
21. }
22.  
23. //The print output:
24. OnTriggerEnter2D
25. HAB
26. stopCard == false: HAB
27. The pos: (0.0, 0.0, 0.0)
28.  

I have tried to put the position in places like OnTriggerEnter2D and others.
I guess the problem may be in how i collect the object.

 

FindWithTag(col.Tag) may not give you the object that collided if there are more objects with that tag. The collider should have inherited a gameobject so you can just use that:
checkPosGameObject = col.gameobject;
This would be in OnTriggerEnter

 

Thanks for your answer. tested this already, and tested again, no difference i am afraid.

 

I looked at your code. It probably should be opposite:
col.gameobject.transform.position = newVector3(0f, 0f, 0f);

 

Does not work. I am currently stripping all code and restart and was thinking about if it is due to the fact that i am dragging the object past the OnTriggerEnter2D and drop it inside. I guess it is triggered before i drop it.
