this value based tool giving script only functions in studio?
just so you know i do have the tools in replicated storage and the script does give me the tool based on the value but only on studio (the new text editor is weird so i did not put any effort into fixing the messed up indenting) Edit: What an easy fix, the issue was that the tools weren't loading in time so i had to add "WaitForChild()" Edit2: That fix didn't actually work. Edit3: Replaced the respawn function with player.CharacterAdded
local replicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local class = Instance.new("StringValue",player)
class.Name = "Class"
class.Value = "Stick"
if class.Value == "Stick" then
wait(.1)
local clone = replicatedStorage.Stick:Clone()
clone.Parent = player.Backpack
elseif class.Value == "Axe" then
wait(.1)
local clone = replicatedStorage.Axe:Clone()
clone.Parent = player.Backpack
end
game.Workspace[player.Name].Humanoid.Died:Connect(function()
wait(5)
if class.Value == "Stick" then
wait(.1)
local clone = replicatedStorage.Stick:Clone()
clone.Parent = player.Backpack
elseif class.Value == "Axe" then
local clone = replicatedStorage.Axe:Clone()
clone.Parent = player.Backpack
end
end)
end)

Hi. First of all, I hope you will succeed with your game. Now, to the errors you've made!
So you didn't actually make errors, only that the tools have no place to be stored in. What I usually do is add a folder into the player using Instance.new And putting tools into it. You could find an example from one of my projects in the "Code" section of this article
Code
This is how I set up my values:
local toolsFolder = Instance.new("Folder")
toolsFolder.Parent = game.Players.Localplayer
toolsFolder.Name = game.Players.Localplayer.Name
local class = Instance.new("StringValue")
class.Parent = toolsFolder
class.Name = "Class"
class.Value = "Stick"
Why use the code
The code matters because the game will sometimes get confused since the value is stored in all players. To prevent this, I named the folder whatever the player name is.

The tools don't load in time when the script runs, to solve this add a "WaitForChild()" on the part where you are mentioning the tools Edit: use player.CharacterAdded instead of game.Workspace[player.Name]
