Tool not cloning to backpack?
This is what I currently have and it doesn't work. There is also no error in the output.
1 | local tools = game.ReplicatedStorage.Tools |
2 |
3 | game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player) |
4 | tools.Plank:Clone().Parent = player.Backpack |
5 | end) |

is it in a local script or a normal script? Gmorcad12345 434 — 3y

It is probably in a normal script because I think that is the only way to access it on a server script. Finty_james 269 — 3y

I had such a problem before. I fixed it by making the ClonedTool a variable
1 | local tools = game.ReplicatedStorage.Tools |
2 |
3 | game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player) |
4 | local clonedTool = tools.Plank:Clone() |
5 | clonedTool.Parent = player.Backpack |
6 | end) |
This feels like the same thing, but it somehow worked for me.

1 | player = game.Players |

Maybe the backpack wasn't loaded in yet when the script was loaded. Try :WaitForChild() or check if the backpack is loaded and then select it. Here is an example:
1 | local tools = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Tools") |
2 | game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player) |
3 | tools.Plank:Clone().Parent = player:WaitForChild("Backpack") |
4 | end) |
By doing this, your waiting for the backpack to load, and once it loads, the tool will be in the backpack! Also tools.Plank:Clone() should be in a variable.

You maybe need to use CharacterAdded
1 | local tools = game.ReplicatedStorage.Tools |
2 |
3 | game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player) |
4 | player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character) |
5 | tools.Plank:Clone().Parent = player.Backpack |
6 | end) |
7 | end) |
This will wait until the player Character to load before cloning.
