Need help trying to get button to light up sprite

Question

I'm trying to get a sprite light up to red, then back to white, picked from a random group of sprites. This should happen after I click a button, which I have assigned an on click event to run public void gameStart, with the object being an object holding all my sprites. This object has this script assigned to it and contains the array of sprites, shown in the inspector. When I click the button it doesn't work. Help would be much appreciated, Thanks.

You should never use sleep. Your are effectively stopping execution. Use a Coroutine with a timer instead.

 IEnumerator FlaaFlee()
 {
     // Do your first color change
     yield return new WaitForSeconds(1f);
     // Do your second color change
 }
 
 public void gameStart()
 {
     StartCoroutine(FlaaFlee());
 }

Thanks for the response, I'm quite new to c#, how would I go about this?

No problem. I added a quick example. This may not fix the problem, but it's a start ;)

Note that you can use the CODE snippet in your questions instead of an image. With that, I could have copy pasted your code to make it easier. Cheers.
