so the output tells me the character is not a valid member of workspace. How do i fix this?

here is the section of the script:

if script.Parent then
    if not script.Parent:IsA("Script") or not script.Parent.Name == "StarterGear" then
        local debris = game:GetService("Debris")
        local backpack = script.Parent
        local player = backpack.Parent
        while player.Character == nil do wait() end
        local character = player.Character
        if character then
            while character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") == nil do wait() end
            local hum = character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")

Don't wait for character on a loop. Wait for it using the CharacterAdded event. SummerEquinox 643 — 5y

Player.CharacterAdded:Wait() ^ SummerEquinox 643 — 5y

you should never assume that the Backpack's parent is always a Player DeceptiveCaster 3761 — 5y

define the player outside the loop DeceptiveCaster 3761 — 5y

so then the player should be gmae:getservice "players"? SplendidKyle567 8 — 5y
