BCE0019: 'active' is not a member of 'unityengine.transform'

Question

0.00/5 (No votes)

See more:

#pragma strict
var target : Transform;
function Start () {
	
}

function Update () {

	if(target.active){
		gameObject.transform.position.x= target.transform.position.x;
		gameObject.transform.position.z= target.transform.position.z;
		
		 

	}
}

What I have tried:

#pragma strict
var target : Transform;
function Start () {
	
}

function Update () {

	if(target.active){
		gameObject.transform.position.x= target.transform.position.x;
		gameObject.transform.position.z= target.transform.position.z;
		
		 

	}
}

transform.active = false;
     else{
     transform.active = true;
     }

Solution 1

Transform does not appear to have such a property according to Unity - Scripting API: Transform[^].

You could try:

C#

GameObject targetObject = target.gameObject;
if (targetObject.activeSelf) {
   // ...
}

and

C#

targetObject.SetActive(true /* or false */);

Also, the code block you showed is not well formed, you have an else statement outside of any function nor related to any if statement. I would be surprised this would even compile.
