Why isn't this simple script not working?
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(plr)
if plr.Name == "dragonmaster4111" or plr.Name == "Player" then
k = game.ReplicatedStorage.Kill:Clone()
k.Parent = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Backpack
end
end)
It doesnt show any errors but the tool just wont get cloned into the backpack.

Is this a local script? You seem to be using '.LocalPlayer' even though you can use 'plr.Backpack' Necrorave 560 — 10y

Just curious. Have you tried using 'plr.Backpack' instead? I am not able to test this myself right now sadly. (At work) Necrorave 560 — 10y

Keep in mind that this sequence of code should be in a script and not in a localscript. I highly suggest you use :lower() and uncap the names. Read on lower() here. When using scripts you can't use 'game.Players.LocalPlayer.'. So, use the plr variable you created with your playeradded event.
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(plr)
if plr.Name:lower() == "dragonmaster4111" or plr.Name:lower() == "player" then
k = game.ReplicatedStorage.Kill:Clone()
k.Parent = plr:FindFirstChild("Backpack")
end
end)

If you can summarize, why can't this be in a local script? Necrorave 560 — 10y

localscripts are scripts that run on the client instead of the server. PlayerAdded doesn't run in localscripts. Thetacah 712 — 10y

Ah, okay. I have always been iffy with localscripts. Thanks. Necrorave 560 — 10y
