the part that's not working is if inputObject.KeyCode.Name=="Enter"then and i don't understand why slash works but not enter

The name is actually "Return" in the KeyCude Enum array.

edit:

The if statement confirms that the KeyCode is Slash. Inside the if statement is a while loop that checks if it is equal to Return. It is not equal to Return, though, because it is equal to Slash. The argument passed to the event isn't going to change; the event is going to be fired another separate time if you press a key again, so you need to check for that:

local player=game.Players.LocalPlayer
local y=1
local l=1

local tools={
	E=game.Lighting["Baton"]:Clone();
	Q=game.Lighting["BillyClubRiotShield"]:Clone();
	R=game.Lighting["LE-AR"]:Clone();
	F=game.Lighting["LE-P1"]:Clone();
	G=game.Lighting["LE-S1"]:Clone();
}
game:GetService("UserInputService").InputBegan:connect(function(inputObject)
	if inputObject.KeyCode.Name=="Slash"then
		while l == 1 do
			y=3
			player.Character.Humanoid:UnequipTools()
			print "yay"
			wait()
		end
		l=1
		y=1
	elseif inputObject.KeyCode.Name=="Return"then
		l=2
	else
		local tool=tools[inputObject.KeyCode.Name]
		if tool then
			if y==1 then
				player.Character.Humanoid:EquipTool(tool)
				y=2
				player.PlayerGui.InventoryGui.Frame.Frame.E.BorderColor3=Color3.new(13/255,120/255,177/255)
			elseif y==2 then
				player.Character.Humanoid:UnequipTools()
				player.PlayerGui.InventoryGui.Frame.Frame.E.BorderColor3=Color3.new(27/255,42/255,53/255)
				y=1
			end
		end
	end
end)
