Unity - Set player position after loading scene - unity3d

Question

I am Trying to set player position after loading a scene. The program runs ok sometimes, but sometimes it places the player in the wrong position.
This is a video showing this strange behaviour: https://youtu.be/MFl9P3taV0Y
This is the code:
public class IniciaHeroi : MonoBehaviour
{
public GameObject GM;
private int startPosition;
void Awake()
{
startPosition = GM.GetComponent<StartScene>().startPosition;
if(startPosition == 1)
{
transform.position = new Vector3(119,4.67f,36);
transform.GetComponent<HeroiMovimento>().rot = -30;
Debug.Log("StartPosition1: " + transform.position);
}
if(startPosition == 2)
{
transform.position = new Vector3(49,13.8f,167);
transform.GetComponent<HeroiMovimento>().rot = 100;
Debug.Log("StartPosition2: " + transform.position);
}
}
}
Debug log shows always the correct position but, as you can see in the video, something changes the position.
Can anyone point the correct way to do this?

Answer 1

The problem was the Character controller attached to my player. For some strange reason Character Controller do not change its own transform.position when i change player transform.position.
So the solution is to disable Character Controller before change player position and Enable it after the change.

Answer 2

Thanks!! Having the same issue, and took me so long to find this. Finally I was able to solve by using disabling the Controller and then enabling it:
example:
gameObject.GetComponent<CharacterController>().enabled = false;
gameObject.transform.position = new Vector3(-31, 1, -10);
gameObject.GetComponent<CharacterController>().enabled = true;
