An object in the scene. Functionality is added using Components. A GameObject has a transform, which explains its position, rotation and scale, relative to its parent. It also has a name, and can be enabled or disabled. When disabled, the GameObject is still in the scene, but the components don't tick and are all disabled.
| Member Name | Summary |
|---|---|
| Clone | Clone a prefab from path. |
| GetPrefab | Get the GameObject of a prefab from file path. |
| JsonRead | Read JSON data into a GameObject. |
| JsonWrite | Write GameObject data to JSON. |
| Member Name | Summary |
|---|---|
| Clone | Create a unique copy of the GameObject. |
| IsDescendant | Returns true if the passed in object is a descendant of ours. |
| IsAncestor | Returns true if the passed in object is an ancestor. |
| AddSibling | Add a sibling GameObject. |
| SetParent | Set the parent GameObject. |
| MakeNameUnique | Make the GameObject's name unique. |
| GetAllObjects | Get all GameObjects, optionally filtering by enabled state. |
| EditLog | Edit log for the GameObject (obsolete). |
| GetBounds | This is slow, and somewhat inaccurate. Don't call it every frame! |
| GetLocalBounds | This is slow, and somewhat inaccurate. Don't call it every frame! |
| GetNextSibling | Get the GameObject after us. |
| Destroy | Destroy this object. Will actually be destroyed at the start of the next frame. |
| DestroyImmediate | Destroy this object immediately. Use with caution. |
| Clear | Destroy all components and child objects. |

| SetPrefabSource | Set the prefab source for this GameObject. |
| BreakFromPrefab | We are cloned from a prefab. Stop that. |
| UpdateFromPrefab | Update this GameObject from its prefab. |
| Serialize | Serialize this GameObject to JSON. |
| Deserialize | Deserialize JSON data into this GameObject. |
| PlaySound | Play this sound on this GameObject. The sound will follow the position of the GameObject. |
| StopAllSounds | Stop any sounds playing on this GameObject. |
| Property Name | Summary |
|---|---|
| Scene | The scene that this GameObject is in. |
| Transform | Our position relative to our parent, or the scene if we don't have any parent. |
| Name | The GameObject's name is usually used for debugging, and for finding it in the scene. |
| IsRoot | Returns true if this is a root object. Root objects are parented to the scene. |
| Root | Return the root GameObject. The root is the object that is parented to the scene - which could very much be this object. |
| EnabledToken | This token is cancelled when the GameObject ceases to exist, or is disabled. |
| Components | Access components on this GameObject. |
| Enabled | Is this gameobject enabled? |
| Parent | The parent GameObject. |
| Children | The child GameObjects. |
| Active | Is this gameobject active. For it to be active, it needs to be enabled, all of its ancestors need to be enabled, and it needs to be in a scene. |
| DebugOverlay | Allows drawing of temporary debug shapes and text in the scene. |
| IsValid | True if the GameObject is not destroyed. |
| IsDestroyed | Return true if this object is destroyed. This will also return true if the object is marked to be destroyed soon. |
| Flags | The flags associated with this GameObject. |
| HasGimzoHandle | Use HasGizmoHandle (obsolete). |
| HasGizmoHandle | Indicates if the GameObject has a gizmo handle. |
| Id | The unique identifier for this GameObject. |
| LocalTransform | The local transform of the game object. |
| LocalPosition | The local position of the game object. |
| LocalRotation | The local rotation of the game object. |
| LocalScale | The local scale of the game object. |
| IsProxy | True if this is a networked object and is owned by another client. |
| IsNetworkRoot | If true then this object is the root of a networked object. |
| Networked | OBSOLETE: Use NetworkMode instead. |
| NetworkMode | How should this object be networked to other clients? |
| NetworkInterpolation | Whether or not our networked transform will be interpolated. |
| Network | Access network information for this GameObject. |
| PrefabInstanceSource | The source of the prefab instance. |
| IsPrefabInstance | Indicates if this GameObject is an instance of a prefab. |
| IsPrefabInstanceRoot | Indicates if this GameObject is the root of a prefab instance. |
| Tags | The tags associated with this GameObject. |
| WorldTransform | The world transform of the game object. |
| WorldPosition | The world position of the game object. |
| WorldRotation | The world rotation of the game object. |
| WorldScale | The world scale of the game object. |
