Parenting in editor?

[Andy Gilbert]

When i drag and drop an object onto another in the editor object list it creates a branch and drops it in, then when i select its parent and move it, they both move. Meaning its parented to that object?

 

But if i tell the parent to move using a script, the child does not?

 

Is this correct?

No, the child should move as well. I attached a camera to a model and it works, or it could be a model to camera!

[Andy Gilbert]

Try doing it not with a camera but two objects.

 

See if that works.

 

Thanks

Your right, no movement with two objects.

This is not real parenting.

This is parenting on the world editor only to make easiest world editing.

i thought it is the same as using entity:SetParent()

It is.

So it's a bug ?

As i would need this functionnality with two ojects : moving the parent object would automatically move/rotate the child.
