Even though my answer is considered a comment, I'lll try to explain why.
The reason why is that the object hasn't loaded into the backpack yet. Try using :WaitForChild()
WaitForChild()
For example, we can do a LocalScript inside StarterPlayerScripts.
local Player = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
local Tool = Player.Backpack:WaitForChild("Tool")
--Random code here and stuff lol
This is a hypothetical situation in which we want to find the Tool inside the Player's backpack.
I usually get a lot of errors in my games for not finding a specified object in a specific place but using WaitForChild() can help.
Click here for the developer wiki page. Good luck on your game!
