Instantiating at random local position.

Hey, so i have been trying to instantiate an object at random local position but it doesnt seem to work. I've tried setting the instantiated object to be a child of that object, wich has the local position that i need, Any ideas?

-Thanks!

Simple code:

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. Transform DamageTextPrefab = Instantiate(DamageText10, new Vector3(Random.Range(-0.0897828f, 0.07099215f), 0.108575f, -0.2966309f), transform.rotation) as Transform;
3.             DamageTextPrefab.transform.parent = transform;
4.  
5.  

 

You're typing your object as a Transform when calling Instantiate. Is your prefab a transform? I'm betting it's a GameObject, not a Transform.

 

It is a Transform. Never mind, ended up fixing it myself, actually it was easy. Thanks for the help anyway. )

How i fixed it:

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. var randPosition = new Vector3(Random.Range(xMin, xMax), yDmgPos, -2);
3. Transform DamageTextPrefab5 = Instantiate(DamageText5, transform.localPosition + randPosition, Quaternion.identity) as Transform;
