What you did wrong.
There isn't a way to make a new material for starts and you also referenced the change of material wrong. As programmerHere stated, it isn't a variable. It's an Enum. To understand Enum, click me!. This should have multiple things to look into to help you later on.
What you should look into.
Alright so you should look more into how to change properties in a script for ROBLOX. I'll leave you a search tab for material. I'll also leave a link to AlvinBlox, a Youtuber who makes ROBLOX Scripting Tutorials.
Fixed Script.
local part - game.Workspace.Baseplate
wait(30)
part.Material = Enum.Material.Neon
Let me know if there's any issues.

No problem!
Material is not a built-in variable.
BasePart.Material is an enum, and to get a Material enum you write Enum.Material.MaterialName.
So change to part.Material = Enum.Material.Neon.
In the autocomplete you will see a list of materials you can use. Some are for terrain, so only use the ones that you can use on regular parts in the explorer.
