Hi there, I’m experienced with Unity as a game engine but a beginner with c# and javascript. I’am writing a script in which an objects colour will change after a random number of seconds. It must be 1 of 6 colours i have already chosen, it cant just be random. I’ve got the timer working and i can change the colour to red for instances, but how do I get the colour to change to any one of the random colours I’ve chosen.

So lets say after a random number of seconds between 10 and 50 the colour of this object will change to either, red, blue, pink, green or yellow?

my code so far:

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class MasterCube : MonoBehaviour {

//public float targetTime = 60.0f;
public float colorChange;



IEnumerator Start()
{
	yield return StartCoroutine(MyDelayMethod(Random.Range( 5,15 )));
	//3.1415 seconds later

}

IEnumerator MyDelayMethod(float delay)
{
			yield return new WaitForSeconds (delay);
			Debug.Log ("time");
			this.gameObject.renderer.material.color = new Color (255, 0, 0, 255);

	}

}

Try this:

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class MasterCube : MonoBehaviour {
	
	public Color[] colors = {Color.red, Color.blue, Color.magenta, Color.green, Color.yellow};
	
	void Start () {
		Invoke("ChangeColour", Random.Range (10, 50));
	}
	
	void ChangeColour() {
		this.gameObject.renderer.material.color = colors[Random.Range (0, colors.Length)];	
	}
}
