The local position is a position which is different depending on the location of the parents. If you’re wanting to slowly move objects in unity into a position rather than instantly teleport then check out this guide which explains lerping and interpolation in more detail! Directly moving a transform to a local positionīefore explaining more about local positions you need to understand how depth, parents and children work in Unity. It sets the position of the transform to a new Vector3 variable (which is a variable type which stores X, Y and Z coordinates used for positioning in 3D space) and we’re initializing the variable with the defined X, Y and Z values. This example will instantly move your object to X:120, Y:50 and Z:45 in world space. Transform.position = new Vector3(120f, 50f, 45f)
To set the world position you use the position property and simply set it to a vector3 type. For example X:0, Y:0, Z:0 will always be the same position in the center of the world. The world position is a location in the scene which is always the same, no matter where your gameobjects are or the depth of your objects. (parenting)ĭirectly moving a transform to a world position
Use the translate method to move the object a certain direction and distance.Directly set the localPosition property to change the local position of the object.Directly set the position property to change the world position of the object.These methods are explained in more detail below! Once you have a variable referencing the target transform there’s a few ways you can move it. Setting the position of a transform overview You can interact with a transform component in a script by either directly assigning a Transform to a variable or if you have a Game Object variable you can access the transform component with ansform. The transform can be read to get this information, or can be set which will change the position, rotation or scale of the game object in the scene. This is used to store the position, rotation and scale of your object. Rotation and scale are only briefly mentioned but still give a basic overview allowing you to manipulate them too! Transform ComponentĪll game objects in Unity have a transform component. This guide focuses on setting object positions. There’s many ways to move objects in Unity and this guide explains how and when each option is best used.
