My StarterPack tools are breaking after death. What is happening? How can I fix it?

I inserted a couple of custom guns I made into the StarterPack, then tested. It worked fine, but when I reseted, the guns broke.

The animations still exist within the tool, but the script keeps saying: (animationName) is not a valid member of Tool

I'm so confused. How can I fix this? How can I prevent this from happening?

Here is the portion of the script, defining the animations:

1local Equip = character:WaitForChild('Humanoid'):LoadAnimation(script.Parent.Equip)
2local Idle = character:WaitForChild('Humanoid'):LoadAnimation(script.Parent.Idle)
3local Reload = character:WaitForChild('Humanoid'):LoadAnimation(script.Parent.Reload)
4local Fire = character:WaitForChild('Humanoid'):LoadAnimation(script.Parent.Fire)

Here's the other portion of the script, playing the animations: (yes, its long.)

Sorry if the second script is long. This is all in a LocalScript inside of the tool.

Please post the script where the animation is referenced. compUcomp 417 — 5y
