02 |
03 | function getPlayer(humanoid) |
04 | local players = game.Players:children() |
05 | for i = 1, #players do |
06 | if players[i].Character.Humanoid == humanoid then return players[i] end |
07 | end |
08 | return nil |
09 | end |
10 |
11 | function onTouch(part) |

There are a couple of mistakes, I did a complete rewrite of the script, made it more efficient, and more organized and easier to read. Consider reading the wiki this will help you a lot.
I have explained each and every thing to the best of my ability, hope I make everything clear for you.
Here's the script:
01 | local debounce = false |
02 |
03 | function onTouch(hit) |
04 | local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent) -- getting the player from his character |
05 | if player.Character and not debounce then -- checking if the player's character exists and the debounce == false |
06 | local char = player.Character -- defining character for later use |
07 | debounce = true |
08 | local weapon = game.Lighting.HyperLaser:clone() |
09 | weapon.Parent = char -- parenting the weapon to character |
10 | wait(5) |
11 | debounce = false |
12 | end |
13 | end |
14 |
15 | script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouch) |
Note: I highly recommend using ServerStorage, rather than Lighting, but I used Lighting anyway since you already had it like that.
Hope it helps!

I have a custom backback that disables the OG backpack and that is why it doesnt work, is there anyway to make it compatable? TixyScripter 115 — 9y

I believe you can parent the tool to the player's character, that would make the character have it already equipped. Unequipping and equipping it again would belong to the custom backpack system you already made. AbsoluteAxiom 175 — 9y
