Hi!

I have a gameObject with some structure inside like this:
Soldier/Armor
Soldier/Head
Soldier/Arms

How I can access to renderer.material.mainTexture or renderer.material.color of children transforms only (ie Armor.transform) from csharp script on parent object (Soldier)?

Thanks!

You can use Transform.Find() to find the transforms by name. Then you can use the renderer in the transform.

Transform trans = transform.find("Head");
trans.renderer.material.color = Color.red;

If you have a hierarchy of transforms, you can also walk the hierarchy:

Transform trans = transform.find("Body/Leg/toes");
