How to get access to the clone object?

Question

2D c#

I have a few prefabs that generate clones. I added a rotation script to each object. I would like to add a button to the scene, with the help of which I will be able to Start Coroutine into every clone's object with specific tag. How to do it? A normal search a tag or the use of the option "other. (Function name)" doesn't work. Can someone help me solve this problem?

Rotation script:

 using System.Collections;
 using System.Collections.Generic;
 using UnityEngine;

 public class Rotation : MonoBehaviour {

 public float speed;
 public float speed2 = 0f;
 private Rigidbody2D rb2D;



 // Use this for initialization
 void Start () {
     
 }

 // Update is called once per frame
 public void Update () {

     transform.Rotate (0, 0, speed);
 }

 public void Stop (){

     StartCoroutine(SpeedZero());
     Debug.Log ("ZEROOOOO");
 }

 IEnumerator SpeedZero()
 {
     transform.Rotate (0, 0, speed2);
     yield return new WaitForSeconds(20);
     transform.Rotate (0, 0, speed);
 
 }

}

Spawn script:

 using System.Collections;
 using System.Collections.Generic;
 using UnityEngine;
 
 public class SunSpawner : MonoBehaviour {
 
 
     public GameObject[] theSuns;
     public Transform generationPoint;
 
 
     private int sunSelector;
     private float sceneHeight;
 
     float distance = 0.5f;
 
 
 
     Vector3 maxWidthPoint;
     Vector3 minWidthPoint;
 
     //Radious base on circle collider radious
     float lastSunRadious = 2f;
 
 
 
     void Start (){
         minWidthPoint = Camera.main.ScreenToWorldPoint(new Vector2(0, Screen.height / 2f));
         maxWidthPoint = Camera.main.ScreenToWorldPoint(new Vector2(Screen.width, Screen.height / 2f));
 
         float bottom = Camera.main.ScreenToWorldPoint(new Vector2(0, 0)).y;
         float top = Camera.main.ScreenToWorldPoint(new Vector2(0, Screen.height)).y;
         sceneHeight = top - bottom;
 
         Debug.LogFormat("Scene height: {0}, minWidthPoint: {1}, maxWidthPoint {2}", sceneHeight, minWidthPoint, maxWidthPoint);
 
 
     }
 
         
     
     public void Update (){
 
         if (transform.position.y < generationPoint.position.y) {
 
             sunSelector = Random.Range(0, theSuns.Length);
             float currentSunRadious = theSuns[sunSelector].GetComponentInChildren<CircleCollider2D>().radius * theSuns[sunSelector].GetComponentInChildren<CircleCollider2D>().transform.localScale.x * theSuns[sunSelector].transform.localScale.x;
             float distanceBetween = distance + lastSunRadious + currentSunRadious; //Random.Range(lastSunRadious+currentSunRadious, sceneHeight);
             float sunXPos = Random.Range(minWidthPoint.x + currentSunRadious, maxWidthPoint.x - currentSunRadious);
 
             Vector3 newSunPosition = new Vector3(sunXPos, transform.position.y + distanceBetween, transform.position.z);
 
             transform.position = newSunPosition;
             lastSunRadious = currentSunRadious;
             Instantiate (theSuns [sunSelector], transform.position, transform.rotation);
 
 
         }
     }
         
 }

Let me know if this makes sense.

Make a variable List of these types of enemies and put it in the script that the OnClick() method is in:

 public List<GameObject> objects = new List<GameObject>();

Add them either in the inspector or in that spawn script you have:

 transform.position = newSunPosition;
              lastSunRadious = currentSunRadious;
              Instantiate (theSuns [sunSelector], transform.position, transform.rotation);
              objects.Add(theSuns[sunSelector];

Then on that OnClick() method, do something like this:

     public void OnClick()
     {
         int roll = new int;
         if (objects.Count > 1)
         {
             roll = Mathf.RoundToInt(Random.Range(0, objects.count)
             objects[roll].SpeedZero();
             return;
         }
            else if (objects.Count > 0)
                     {
             objects[0].SpeedZero();
                     }
     }

After I posted this, I realized I never answered your question! Sorry, I get distracted!

When do you need something to stop? Will a bool need to be true, a player standing inside/outside of something, will a certain value need to be 0 or 100, need to have something in inventor/solve puzzle?

It sounds like you are trying to stop a specific sun, maybe when a task in the game is completed I guess? This solution will stop a random sun of course, but without knowledge of when a sun would need to stop, I can't tell you how to reference that sun on the onclick method.
