Instantiating an object to the position of another vector, hoping to change Y-axis in the code

Question

I have enemies spawn by instantiating them and having them follow a straight path along the X-axis. When instantiated, I want some variability in their height to match the game background.

Instantiate(enemyPrefabs[5], waveConfigs[0].GetWayPoints()[0].transform.position, Quaternion.identity);
yield return new WaitForSeconds(.3f);

Here is my code, I am hoping to have the same transform position called, but to be able to edit the y axis of the transform.position.

Answer 1

Something like that your waveConfigs could have two float fields for minYOffset and maxYOffset.

Vector3 spawnerPosition = waveConfigs[0].GetWayPoints()[0].transform.position;

spawnerPosition.y += Random.Range(waveConfigs[0].minYOffset, waveConfigs[0].maxYOffset);

Instantiate(prefab, spawnerPosition, Quaternion.identity, null);
