Code to Change Fluid Material Color

I was wondering if there is a line of code that can change the fluid material's color on a fluid conveyor. I can only find a line of code to change the transparency of the fluid, but I am unable to figure out how to change the material color. Is there a scripting reference you can point me to or help me figure out the line of code? Thanks!

Software Version:

FlexSim 19.1.1

Here is a script that you can run that changes the material color to aqua

Color materialColor = Color.aqua;
treenode materialColorNode = getvarnode(Model.find("FluidConveyor1"),"materialcolor");
materialColorNode.subnodes[1].value = materialColor.r;
materialColorNode.subnodes[2].value = materialColor.g;
materialColorNode.subnodes[3].value = materialColor.b;
materialColorNode.subnodes[4].value = materialColor.a;
