How do I prevent tools from disappearing from the player's backpack after death?

I created a shop that sold guns, and it all worked fine. The thing is, when the player dies, they lose all the guns that they bought, and only the starter gun remains in their inventory.

Here's my LocalScript inside of one of the guns:

001game.Players.LocalPlayer.Backpack.ChildAdded:Connect(function()
002    local MaxAmmo = 40
003    local Ammo = MaxAmmo
004    local character = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character
005    local function createBullet()
006        local bulletPart = workspace.bullet:Clone()
007        bulletPart.Parent = workspace
008        bulletPart.Position = script.Parent.Handle.Part.Position
009        bulletPart.Orientation = bulletPart.Orientation + (script.Parent.Handle.Orientation - Vector3.new(0,90,0))
010        for i = 0,25,10 do
011            bulletPart.CFrame = bulletPart.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,0,i)
012            wait()
013        end
014        bulletPart:remove()
015    end
016 
017    local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer or game.Players.PlayerAdded:Wait()
018    while not character do
019        character.AncestryChanged:Wait()
020    end
021 
022    local hum = character:WaitForChild('Humanoid')
023    local reloadAnim = hum:LoadAnimation(script.Parent.Animation)
024    local fireAnim = hum:LoadAnimation(script.Parent.fire)
025 
026    script.Parent:WaitForChild('MaxAmmo').Value = MaxAmmo
027    script.Parent:WaitForChild('Ammo').Value = Ammo

029    local canDamage = true

Yes, this is long and I'm very sorry for that. I really need answers though, because I want this game out as soon as possible.

do you have a core script for players? just wondering because my method involves cloning the players tools when they die, temporarly store them in a seperate folder, then when the character loads, I take those cloned tools and replace them in the backpack. mantorok4866 201 — 5y
