    You need to pass a reference to the struct instead of a copy using the ref keyword :

    public void ChangeStruct (ref MyStruct myStruct)
    {
       myStruct.field1 = 10;
    }
    
    ChangeStruct(ref someStruct);
    

    Your current code create a full bit-for-bit copy of the struct before entering the method and it’s this copy that you are modifying, the ref keyword force the caller to pass a reference (managed pointer) to the structure instead of the copy.
