Hi, you have just posted code with no explanation as to what problem you are having. What is the expected behavior and what behavior are you experiencing?

When you want to do a comparison, you need to use ==. When you use a single equal sign it will set the variable equal to the right-hand-side value. So this line is not correct:

if (inRange = true)

Since inRange is a bool, you can just include the bool itself as the condition

if(inRange)
3

I’m not sure if this is a problem or not, but I think it should be

void Update()
    {

              if (inRange = true && Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Space)) //Bool and KeyInput
                    { 
                         Stove.gameObject.GetComponent<SpriteRenderer>().sprite = Stove2;  
                                                // change sprite
                    }
    }

You should put them both in the if statement, because Input.GetKeyDown is a bool statement.

Or you could nest the if statements and do

void Update()
    {

              if (inRange = true)  //Bool
                    { 
                        if(Input.GetKeyDown(Keycode.Space)) //Key Input
                         {

                         Stove.gameObject.GetComponent<SpriteRenderer>().sprite = Stove2;  
                                                // change sprite
                        }
                    }
    }
