    Hi, I need a script to find all the lights within the gameobject, and change colors of the lights. So for I got this:
    Code (java):
    1.  
    2. for(var lig : Light in TheObject.gameObject.FindObjectsOfType(Light))
    3. {
    4.     lig.color = Color.Lerp(startcolor, endcolor, lerp);
    5. }
    6.

    Using GetComponentsInChildren will search the root game object and all of its children for all components of type.

    Code (csharp):
    1. for (var light : Light in TheObject.gameObject.GetComponentsInChildren<Light>())
    2. {
    3.   light.color = Color.Lerp(startcolor, endcolor, lerp);
    4. }
