Getting the material of an object

Does anyone know of a faster way to get the material of an object that is not on the object itself?
For example, I have a material on the top null that textures anything that does not have a tag underneath. My current method is going up the hierarchy and testing each material until I find the one that the object is using. I feel like this is a really bad way of doing this and can be slow with hundreds of nulls and materials.

Hello,
what do you mean with "testing each material"? You could simply check all parent objects if they have a tag of the type
Ttexture[URL-REMOVED]. If yes simply access the texture tag toget the material[URL-REMOVED].Best wishes,

Some of the parent objects use a selection tag for the material or multiple materials. If so, then I would be getting the wrong material on some objects. I optimized my code a little so It's in a manageable speed now.
