[Solved]Moving Platform error

Hello again, so today I'm working on moving some platforms. I have followed some tutorials and steps and have concluded with this code below. I receive four errors in which I am unsure how to fix. If anybody could help that would be awesome! (3) on line 32 (1) on line 34. I believe they have to do with conversion between variables and operands for the last one. I received these errors due to trying to modify an Outdated script from Unity 4.X

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using System.Collections;
3.  
4. public class MovingPlatforms : MonoBehaviour
5. {
6.  
7.     [SerializeField]
8.     Transform movingPlatform;
9.  
10.     [SerializeField]
11.     Transform startTransform;
12.  
13.     [SerializeField]
14.     Transform endTransform;
15.  
16.     [SerializeField]
17.     Transform platformSpeed;
18.  
19.     Vector3 direction;
20.  
21.     Transform destination;
22.  
23.     void Start()
24.     {
25.         SetDestination(startTransform); //move in direction set to motion
26.     }
27.  
28.  
29.     // Update is called once per frame
30.     void FixedUpdate ()
31.     {
32.         movingPlatform.GetComponent<Rigidbody2D>().MovePosition(movingPlatform.position + direction * platformSpeed * Time.fixedDeltaTime);
33.  
34.         if(Vector3.Distance(movingPlatform.position, destination.position) < platformSpeed * Time.fixedDeltaTime) //compares distance to turn around platform
35.         {
36.             SetDestination(destination == startTransform ? endTransform : startTransform); // ? = if true or false then go that direction
37.         }
38.     }
39.  
40.     void OnDrawGizmos()
41.     {
42.         Gizmos.color = Color.green;
43.         Gizmos.DrawWireCube(startTransform.position, movingPlatform.localScale); //creates starting wireCube in Green
44.  
45.         Gizmos.color = Color.red;
46.         Gizmos.DrawWireCube(endTransform.position, movingPlatform.localScale);    //creates ending wireCube in Red
47.     }
48.  
49.     void SetDestination(Transform dest)
50.     {
51.         destination = dest;
52.         direction = (destination.position - movingPlatform.position).normalized;
53.     }
54. }

 

What are the error messages? Copy them from the console & paste them here

 

ERRORS BELOW:

1) Assets/Scripts/Level2_Scripts/MovingPlatforms.cs(32,99): error CS0019: Operator `*' cannot be applied to operands of type `UnityEngine.Vector3' and `UnityEngine.Transform'

2) Assets/Scripts/Level2_Scripts/MovingPlatforms.cs(32,60): error CS1502: The best overloaded method match for `UnityEngine.Rigidbody2D.MovePosition(UnityEngine.Vector2)' has some invalid arguments

3) Assets/Scripts/Level2_Scripts/MovingPlatforms.cs(32,60): error CS1503: Argument `#1' cannot convert `object' expression to type `UnityEngine.Vector2'

4) Assets/Scripts/Level2_Scripts/MovingPlatforms.cs(34,86): error CS0019: Operator `*' cannot be applied to operands of type `UnityEngine.Transform' and `float'

 

platformSpeed is a Transform type. It looks like you want it to be a Vector2, or a float. I can't tell which. Or, perhaps you're using the local position of the platformSpeed transform to determine the motion of the platform, in which case you'd want to multiple platformSpeed.localPosition.

 

For all those who need an answer, I found out that unity was using an old API to calculate the way i wrote my codes equations, once i updated the API everything worked
