Hi. First off, put it in a script. And try the following:

local OwnerId = {game.CreatorId}

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(checkPlr)
if table.find(OwnerId, checkPlr.UserId) then
local newRegister = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("Black Registry")
local clone = newRegister:Clone()
clone.Parent = checkPlr.Backpack
wait(2)
print(#OwnerId.." players will be given a tool if online.")
else
warn("Someone joined but is not a owner! :(")
 end
end)

If it's do not work, tell me in the comments.

didn't work, the game is a group project and maybe I can use the player.Name to give the tool TudiPYM 12 — 3y

Hello TudiPYM! If you use "player.Name" it is the same as the ID of a person. A players name can be changed (Not saying that you would but if you do this would happen) therefor if you use player.Name another person with that name would run that function. Instead find your personal ID and type that in. wolftamer894 50 — 3y

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer

that will only work in local scripts.

Try this.

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
    if player.Name == "TudiPYM" then
        local register = game.ReplicatedStorage:FindFirstChild("Black Registry")
        local clone = register:Clone()
        clone.Parent = player.Backpack
    end
end)

You haven't said why that is the case. Dovydas1118 1495 — 3y
