Blend into next color instead of jumping to next color

Questions & Answers

I have the following script segment in my day and night cycle I have been working on but instead it just jumping form SunRiseColor to normalColor I want it to blend to that color as it goes or change shades till it gets there. The _timeOfDay is my day code that its basing when do do each at. Right now I am doing sunRiseColor and sunRise2Color because I could not get a blend.

private void AdjustColor()
	{
		for(int cnt = 0; cnt < _sunScript.Length; cnt++)
			{
			
		
		if(_timeOfDay >20 && _timeOfDay < 38)
			{
				_sunScript[cnt].GetComponent<Light>().color = sunRiseColor;
				_sunScript[cnt].GetComponent<LensFlare>().color = sunRiseColor;
			}
		if(_timeOfDay >38 && _timeOfDay < 40)
			{
				_sunScript[cnt].GetComponent<Light>().color = sunRise2Color;
				_sunScript[cnt].GetComponent<LensFlare>().color = sunRise2Color;
				
			}
		if(_timeOfDay > 75 && _timeOfDay < 85)
			{
				_sunScript[cnt].GetComponent<Light>().color = sunSetColor;
				_sunScript[cnt].GetComponent<LensFlare>().color = sunSetColor;
			}
		if(_timeOfDay > 85 && _timeOfDay < 100)
			{
				_sunScript[cnt].GetComponent<Light>().color = sunSet2Color;
				_sunScript[cnt].GetComponent<LensFlare>().color = sunSet2Color;
			}
			
		if(_timeOfDay > 40 && _timeOfDay < 75)
			{
				_sunScript[cnt].GetComponent<Light>().color = normalColor;
				_sunScript[cnt].GetComponent<LensFlare>().color = normalColor;
			}
			
		}
	}

Color.Lerp would do this for you beautifully. Here is an example of one case:

Light targetLight = sunScript[cnt].GetComponent<Light>();
LensFlare targetLensFlare = _sunScript[cnt].GetComponent<LensFlare>();

targetLight.color = Color.Lerp(targetLight.color, sunRiseColor, 
                                Time.deltaTime * 0.5f);
targetLensFlare.color = Color.Lerp(targetLensFlare.color, sunRiseColor,
                                   Time.deltaTime * 0.5f);

Let me know how that works out for you.
