How do I make a gamepass tool giver that doesn't need a server restart to work?
So I have a segway in Server Storage that I want to do so if you buy it, you just need to rejoin the server to have it. Cause the gamepass script that I have now needs a server restart before it works. The gamepass Id is : 503854648
Thanks!
[UPDATE] -The script is in Workspace and there is a value in the script with the gamepass id. Thats the code that I have now :
--------------------
--| WaitForChild |--
--------------------
-- Waits for parent.child to exist, then returns it
local function WaitForChild(parent, childName)
assert(parent, "ERROR: WaitForChild: parent is nil")
while not parent:FindFirstChild(childName) do parent.ChildAdded:wait() end
return parent[childName]
end
-----------------
--| Variables |--
-----------------
local GamePassService = game:GetService('GamePassService')
local PlayersService = game:GetService('Players')
local ServerStorageService = game:GetService('ServerStorage') --TODO: Use new data store service once that exists
local GamePassIdObject = WaitForChild(script, 'GamePassId')
local AdminTools = WaitForChild(ServerStorageService, 'Seg')
-----------------
--| Functions |--
-----------------
-- Makes copies of all the admin tools and puts them in target
local function CloneAdminTools(target)
for _, tool in pairs(AdminTools:GetChildren()) do
local toolClone = tool:Clone()
toolClone.Parent = target
end
end
-- When a player with the game pass joins, give them the admin tools
local function OnPlayerAdded(player)
if GamePassService:PlayerHasPass(player, GamePassIdObject.Value) then
local starterGear = WaitForChild(player, 'StarterGear')
CloneAdminTools(starterGear)
if player.Character then -- They've already loaded and won't get their StarterGear until next spawn
local backpack = WaitForChild(player, 'Backpack')
CloneAdminTools(backpack)
end
end
end
--------------------
--| Script Logic |--
--------------------
PlayersService.PlayerAdded:connect(OnPlayerAdded)

Hey,
The problem is the PlayerAdded event. You're only checking it once. What I would do is when the player joins, run a loop (every 15 seconds) and call the function "OnPlayerAdded" with the player's name of course. So, in the end:
local function OnPlayerAdded(player)
if GamePassService:PlayerHasPass(player, GamePassIdObject.Value) then
local starterGear = WaitForChild(player, 'StarterGear')
CloneAdminTools(starterGear)
if player.Character then -- They've already loaded and won't get their StarterGear until next spawn
local backpack = WaitForChild(player, 'Backpack')
CloneAdminTools(backpack)
end
return true
end
end
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(p)
while wait(15) do
if OnPlayerAdded(p) then
break
end
end
end)
Another way you can do is make a gui that when clicked, checks if the player has the gamepass or not (you should set a time frame between each "check" so the players wont spam the button).
