How come the backpack items don't reappear when the player respawns?
I am a beginner scripter and I have been working on this script. It is supposed to add more gear to the players backpack every time they level up, and that part works, but when they die none of the gear respawns. I tried solving it with the character:WaitForChild("Humanoid").Died:connect(function() in order reset the lev0 variable to false, but that didn't seem to work. The real script is larger, with 10 different functions for 11 levels, but I only included the lev0 function to make it easier to read. Please help me!
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
wait(2)
local stats = player.leaderstats.Level.Value
local alive = true
local lev0 = false
player.CharacterAdded:connect(function(character)
alive = true
character:WaitForChild("Humanoid").Died:connect(function()
alive = false
lev0 = false
end)
end)
while stats and alive == true do
if stats >= 0 and lev0 == false then
local flashlight = game.ServerStorage.Flashlight:Clone()
flashlight.Parent = player.Backpack
lev0 = true
end
end
end)

If we want the player to respawn with the tool, we must also put it into their startergear. Startergear is a folder inside the player that clones its children into the player's backpack every time the player dies.
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
wait(2)
local stats = player.leaderstats.Level.Value
local alive = true
local lev0 = false
player.CharacterAdded:connect(function(character)
alive = true
character:WaitForChild("Humanoid").Died:connect(function()
alive = false
lev0 = false
end)
end)
while stats and alive == true do
if stats >= 0 and lev0 == false then
local flashlight = game.ServerStorage.Flashlight:Clone()
flashlight.Parent = player.Backpack
flashlight.Parent = player.StarterGear
lev0 = true
end
end
end)

StarterGear is a child of Player, which is only present when a player is in game. HungryJaffer 1246 — 8y
