If you don't want the tool visible in the backpack, just keep the tool in the lighting, then have the script move the tool into the backpack after a specific amount of time has passed. Like so:
--PUT THIS SCRIPT IN THE PLAYER
wait(30) --Waits 30 seconds
local Tool = Lighting["PUT TOOL NAME HERE"]:Clone() --Clones the tool
Tool.Parent = Player.Backpack --Puts the tool in the backpack of Player
wait(45) --Waits 45 seconds
Tool:Destroy() --Removes the tool
However, if you want the tool to be visible in the backpack, you would have a value in the tool called "CanSelect" or something like that, and have the equipped function of the tool check to see if that value is true, and if it isn't, then it deselects the tool. Like so:
--PUT THIS SCRIPT IN THE TOOL
local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer --This gets the player that the script is in
function onEquipped()
if (not Tool.CanSelect.Value) then
Player.Character.Humanoid:UnequipTools()
break
end
--Code here
end
You can have an external script change the value of "CanSelect" after a set time
Is it in a Gui? If it is, I could help you out.
Put this script in the Gui.
Put the tool in Lighting.
while true do
if script.Parent.MouseButton1Click then
game.Lighting.TOOLNAME:clone().Parent = backpack
end
script.Parent.Visible = false
wait(45)
script.Parent.Visible = true
wait(30)
script.Parent.Visible = false
wait(45)
end

I have a GUI shop, but the tool itself would be in the players backpack.

Where would I put the script on top?
Why lighting?
Just put it in workspace I believe. But what is "Player" in the Player.Backpack?
