so i need a script and I can't find it anywhere. And I am noob at writing script so i can't write it. Does anyone have this script?

(ex. if player 1 has a tool name 'sword' , then he can't get it anymore.)

How does the player recieve it? Shop? Item giver? YazaTheGreat 5 — 4y

imma assume that when a player touch a brick, the game gives them a sword

01local Sword = game.ServerStorage.Sword --- or where ever the sword tool is stored
02local SwordString = tostring(Sword)
03script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(player) -----This script must be in the part which is desired to give the sword
04 
05    local backpack = game.Players[player.Name]:WaitForChild("Backpack")
06 
07    if backpack:FindFirstChild(SwordString) then --- checking for sword in the player
08        print("player already has item") --- code that fire if there is already a sword
09    else
10        local SwordCopy = Sword:Clone() --- if there isn't a sword, copy the original
11        SwordCopy.Parent = backpack --- set the parent of the sword to the player's backpack
12    end

It's pretty simple. When you give them the sword, you make a check inside their backpack to see if that item already exists. You could do something like this:

1script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
2    if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
3        local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
4        -- Now we will first check if they already own the item.
5        if not player.Backpack:FindFirstChild("ItemNameHere") then
6            ItemName:Clone().Parent = player.Backpack
7        end
8    end
9end)

Hope it helped.
