# Transform Hook

## Overview

The Transform Hook Component uses a Transform Scriptable Variable to link at Runtime a Transform in the scene, so it can be access by any script or component during gameplay. This way of creating references, is mainly to avoid dependencies, or the use of Singletons in your Project.

It will store a Transform on  the OnEnable callback on the Transform Scriptable Variable , and It will remove it on Disable.  

{% hint style="info" %}
Scriptable Assets cannot store scenes references. That is why this is done at runtime.
{% endhint %}

## Example

{% embed url="<https://streamable.com/c85gq1>" %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://malbersanimations.gitbook.io/animal-controller/scriptable-architecture/scriptables/transform-hook.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
