Hi,

Can you check if you mean GetComponentInParents than GetComponentInParent?

For what I tested:

public class Issue43 : MonoBehaviour
{
    [GetComponentInParent] public MCUnit mcUnit;
}

Ensure I'm in prefab editing mode:

Attach MCUnit to PR_lankyman

Then attach Issue43 to it's directly children:

Both lankyman (a normal GameObject) and lankyman (1) (a prefab) works as expected

So maybe your MCUnit is not direct parent of your GetComponentInParent, thus you need GetComponentInParents

If not, please tell me where your GetComponentInParent attached in your screenshot so I can try re-produce this issue.

I think it was problem with HotReload breaking things again. It works as expected now, but sometimes not due to HR intercepting stuff.
