GetGameObject unity code example

Example 1: how to find gameobjects in unity

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
// This returns the GameObject named Hand in one of the Scenes.
public class ExampleClass : MonoBehaviour
{
    public GameObject hand;    
    
    void Example()
    {
        // This returns the GameObject named Hand.
        hand = GameObject.Find("Hand");        
      
        // This returns the GameObject named Hand.
        // Hand must not have a parent in the Hierarchy view.
        hand = GameObject.Find("/Hand");     
      
        // This returns the GameObject named Hand,
        // which is a child of Arm > Monster.
        // Monster must not have a parent in the Hierarchy view.
        hand = GameObject.Find("/Monster/Arm/Hand");
        
        // This returns the GameObject named Hand,
        // which is a child of Arm > Monster.
        hand = GameObject.Find("Monster/Arm/Hand");
    }
}

Example 2: how to access gameobject name

// note how the 'g' is lowercase, when it's lowercase it accesses the GameObject its attached to
gameObject.name
// so if this script was attached an object named "Player", it will access "Player"

Example 3: unity get object by name

function Update() {    var enemy : GameObject = GameObject.Find("enemy");    //perform operations on enemy here}

Example 4: finding object trough scripts c#

hand = GameObject.Find("Hand");

Example 5: what does gameobject.find return

//It returns null/void
