Every Game Object in a Scene has a Transform. It's used to store and manipulate the position, rotation
and scale of the object. Every Transform can have a parent, which allows you to apply position, rotation
and scale hierarchically. This is the hierarchy seen in the Hierarchy pane.

void Start()
{
transformComponent = GetComponent<Transform>();
}

void Update()
{
float newX = transformComponent.position.x + speed * Time.deltaTime;
Vector3 newPosition = new Vector3(newX, transformComponent.position.y, transformComponent.position.z);
transformComponent.position = newPosition;
}
}

All public members of your custom


component will give editable
properties in the Inspector.
