Hello there, I have a script for creating the object and another one as the duplicated object which is supposed to change the color of the object however the script does not change the color at generation. it changes color to the wanted value only after an interaction happens.

    private UnityEngine.Color originalObstacleColor;
    [HideInInspector] public int life = 1;

    UnityEngine.Color colorGet()
    {
        if (life <= 10 )
        {
            return UnityEngine.Color.blue;
        }
        else if (life <= 25)
        {
            return UnityEngine.Color.cyan;
        }
        else
        {
            return UnityEngine.Color.green;
        }
    }

    void Start()
    {
        originalObstacleColor = colorGet();
    }

I don’t see anything in the code snippet you shared that would change the color of any in-game object. You are merely changing the value of a color variable in your script.

Its odd, It actually changes color when the objects are damaged can you open it a little?

Presumably there is more code than you are sharing here.

Ah yes! you are right sorry, changed:
originalObstacleColor = colorGet();
With:
gameObject.GetComponent().material.color = colorGet();
Works like wonders now.
