Resolved Instantiate clones array destroyer

Success! I'm so happy I'll share the experience to help out others. I looked all over for the answer to this problem, then had a eureka moment when I figured out the solution.


Summary:

The Problem:
Original prefab gets destroyed with its clones on destroy due to tag name.
Spawner broke because it had no prefab to clone.

The Solution:
Created a clone Tag called "Clone".
I gave the clones a new tag(Clone) as they were instantiated with cube.tag = "Clone";
Changed the FindGameObjectsWitheTag to ("Clone").


The long story with details:

The problem was:
I had a spawner. It spawned clones of a prefab(Taged: MiniGamePrefabs) on mass. When the player leaves the area or game over, the score goes to 0, the collection of prefabs GameObject[].FindGameObjectsWithTag("MiniGamePrefabs") gets destroyed. Problem is when the player goes back into the area the spawner has no prefab to reference, the original prefab gets destroyed because it's tag("MiniGamePrefabs"). I saw a few complicated solutions, but you always want to take the simplest approach if you can.



--Below is the ResetScore script with the FindGameObjects[] to create the list of tagged objects.

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

public class ResetScore : MonoBehaviour
{
private int resetScore = 0;

private void OnTriggerEnter(Collider collider)
{
if(collider.gameObject.CompareTag("Paws"))
{

****//Creating the list of objects to be destroyed here//****
GameObject[] argo = GameObject.FindGameObjectsWithTag("MiniGamePrefabs");
foreach (GameObject go in argo)
{
****//This is when the list gets destroyed//****
Destroy(go);
}
****//Resets all minigames scores to 0//****
//reset score of all mini games of saber type
ScoringSystemCatSaber.catSaborTheScore = resetScore;
SquilSaber1ScoreManager.squilSaber1TheScore = resetScore;
SquilSaber2ScoreManager.squilSaber2TheScore = resetScore;
SquilSaber3ScoreManager.squilSaber3TheScore = resetScore;
StinkSaberScoreManager.stinkSaberTheScore = resetScore;
ScoringSystemToySaber.toySaberTheScore = resetScore;
CarTrouble1ScoringSystem.carTroubleTheScore = resetScore;
CarTrouble2ScoringSystem.carTrouble2TheScore = resetScore;
CarTrouble3ScoringSystem.carTrouble3TheScore = resetScore;

}
}
}



--Below is the Spawner script that spawns GameObject cube on mass.

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

public class Spawner : MonoBehaviour
{

public GameObject[] cubes;
public Transform[] points;
public float beat = (60/130)*2;
public float timer;

void Update()
{
if (timer>beat)
{
GameObject cube = Instantiate(cubes[Random.Range(0, 4)], points[Random.Range(0, 4)]);
******* cube.tag = "Clone"; ******* //This is the one line of code added to fix my problem//
cube.transform.localPosition = Vector3.zero;
cube.transform.Rotate(transform.forward, 90 * Random.Range(0, 4));
timer -= beat;
}
timer += Time.deltaTime;
}
}
