transform type mismatch on a prefab when dragging an object from hierarchy

[leaden granite]

Well... yeah

[round mesa]

whats the reason?

[leaden granite]

How do you expect to assign a scene entity in a prefab?

[round mesa]

dragging it on a prefab, since the object is always in the scene?

[leaden granite]

The prefab isn't though..

[round mesa]

im a noob if you havent noticed so idk

so how do i make it get the players current location then?

[leaden granite]

Inject a reference when you instantiate it

[round mesa]

uhh

yea, ima need to do some google searches

wait, but i have a spawnManager script that instantiates enemies, but im making it track from the enemy script

how would injecting a reference work

[leaden granite]

im making it track from the enemy script
What do you mean by this

[round mesa]

i have an enemy script, which im making the enemy chase after the player and also attack and stuff, but i instantiate the enemy from a spawnManager script

[leaden granite]

I assume the spawn manager is present in the scene, yes? (Not a prefab itself)

[round mesa]

yes, its in the scene

[leaden granite]

Have the spawn manager track the player reference (use a serialized field), you can drag the player onto the spawn manager.

The spawn manager then just passes that reference on after Instantiate-ing an enemy

Ideally using a property

[round mesa]

alright ima give it a try

thanks
