Cannot implicitly convert 'UnityEngine.GameObject' to 'UnityEngine.Transform'-CodePudding

I'm trying to create a simple EnemyAI where the enemy follows the player. I have problem where the Engine cannot convert 'UnityEngine.GameObject' to 'UnityEngine.Transform'. Here's the code:

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;

public class EnemyAI : MonoBehaviour
{
    Transform TargetedPlayer;
    public float EnemySpeed = 3f;
    void FixedUpdate()
    {
        EnemyFollow();
    }
    void EnemyFollow()
    {
        TargetedPlayer = GameObject.Find("Pig"); //Issue
        if (Vector3.Distance(transform.position,TargetedPlayer.position)>1f)
        {
            transform.Translate(new Vector3(EnemySpeed * Time.deltaTime,0,0) );
        }
    }
}

I understand the problem but I don't know how to change the code without breaking it. Thanks In Advance to the people that helped :)

CodePudding user response：

I'm taking a wild guess here but make

[SerializeField] Transform TargetedPlayer;

public Transform TargetedPlayer;

and drag the player there

and delete

TargetedPlayer = GameObject.Find("Pig"); //Issue

In my little experience I would recommend you if you can, use NavMeshAgent for the enemy to follow the player
