The error basically means you're attempting to access the variable "material" of a Renderer, but you are not doing so correctly through an instance of Renderer, but by the class itself, only line 14 of your script.

To be certain of anything else we would need you to post the script so we can check it.

var Distance; var Target : Transform; var LookAtDistance = 25.0; var AttackRange = 15.0; var moveSpped = 5.0; var Damping = 6.0;

function Update () { Distance = Vector3.Distance(Target.position, transform.position);

 if (Distance < LookAtDistance)
 {
     Renderer.material.color = Color.yellow;
      lookAt();
 }
 
 if (Distance > LookAtDistance)
 {
     Renderer.material.color = Color.green; 
 }
 
 if (Distance < AttackRange)
 {
     Renderer.material.color = Color.red;
     attack ();
 }

}

function lookAt () { var rotation = Quaternion.LookRotation(Target.position - transform.position); transform.rotation = Quaternion.slrep(transform.rotation, rotation, Time.deltatime * Damping); }

function attack () { transform.Translate(Vector3.foward moveSpped Time.deltaTime); }

Based on the script you posted. Looks like the way you're accessing the renderer is incorrect.

 Renderer.material.color = Color.green;

using a capital R here causes it to refer to the type, not the instance of the component on the object. try this instead.

 renderer.material.color = Color.green;
