[Solved] How do you duplicate the item and keep the name?

Whenever I duplicate a brick, the duplicate name has a number in parentheses (Example 1Hit duplicates to 1Hit (1), 1Hit (2), etc.). In the video you make duplicate bricks and they all have the same name. How?

Hi Brady,

This I believe is a change that has happened within Unity, e.g. one of the differences between versions.

You can however;

  • duplicate all of your brick game objects
  • select multiple items in the Hierarchy (Shift + Left Click or CTRL + Left Click)
  • use the Inspector to rename

This way, you can really quickly rename any number of uniquely named brick game objects to “1 Hit” for example.

Hope this helps :slight_smile:
