    Hey guys,
    Simple question I cannot figure out.
    Trying to access parent transform from its childobject

    'canvasBoard' is the 'Canvas' gameObject

    the transform.parent should return the 'Player_prefab' transform but on Multiplayer 'add Host' it always return null.
    why is that?
    thanks

    Hey @maryuma888 , I'm assuming your script is on the Player_Prefab (is it?) so in that case the issue is that you're accessing transform.parent instead of canvasBoard.transform.parent , as with this setup transform refers to the Player_Prefab's transform.

    Does this fix your issue?

    Either what @RikuTheFuffs-U already suggested or ControllStabilize is indeed located on your Canvas object but you forgot to reference canvasBoard in the inspector.
