Unity C#. How do I link instantiated objects to a pathfinding script and how do I make a gameobject move to a list of nodes?

1. Instantiate enemy and add it to a list (which is in your script):

using UnityEngine; public class Controller: MonoBehaviour { GameObject enemyPrefab; List<GameObject> enemiesList = new List<GameObject>(); void Start() { GameObject enemy = Instantiate(enemiePrefab, transform.position, transform.rotation); enemiesList.Add(enemy); } } 

2. Make the object move on your pathfinding:

There are many ways to do that, but I suggest you to store in a List, array or whatever you want, the different waypoints that you have. Then make your enemies follow one waypoint after another.

So now your main script should look like:

using UnityEngine; public class Controller : MonoBehaviour { public GameObject enemyPrefab; private List<GameObject> enemiesList = new List<GameObject>(); public List<GameObject> wayPoints = new List<GameObject>(); void Start() { GameObject enemy = Instantiate(enemiePrefab, transform.position, transform.rotation); enemy.wayPoints = wayPoints; enemiesList.Add(enemy); } } 

And your enemy script should look like:

using UnityEngine; public class Enemy : MonoBehaviour { public List<GameObject> wayPoints = new List<GameObject>(); public float speed; private Transform target; int waypointIndex = 0; private void Start() { target = List[waypointIndex].transform; waypointIndex++; } void Update() { // The step size is equal to speed times frame time. float step = speed * Time.deltaTime; // Move our position a step closer to the target. transform.position = Vector3.MoveTowards(transform.position, target.position, step); //If we arrive to the target, get the new target if(this.transform.position == target.position) { waypointIndex++; //if it is the last element, go to the first one again if(wayPointIndex > List.Count()) { wayPointIndex = 0; } target = List[waypointIndex].transform; } } } 

Note that you can alterate the code so your controller also moves every enemy, but that's up to you!
