How can I clone a tool with the text I want?

[greendayshade (kosma)]

Hello. I’m trying to copy a text variable onto a TextLabel inside of a Tool. Do I need to path a way into the player’s backpack and change it there? Or do I use StarterPack instead?

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local numberService = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("LotteryNumberService") 
local LotteryCard = game:GetService("Lighting")["Lottery Card"]
local LotteryCardText = LotteryCard.LotteryCard.SurfaceGui.TextLabel.Text
local function onButtonPress(player, text)
	local playerNumber = tonumber(text)
	if typeof(playerNumber) == "number" then 
		if playerNumber >= 0 and playerNumber <= 100 then
		end
	end
end

numberService.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, text)
	print(player, text)
	onButtonPress(player, text)
	LotteryCardText = text
	local clone = LotteryCard:Clone()
	clone.Parent = game.Players[player.Name].Backpack
end)

This is a server script inside of ServerScriptStorage.
Here’s a picture of the explorer.

I think the issue is that it only clones the tool itself, not the tool AND anything that’s a child of it. Not sure though.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

You’re not setting the Text of the TextLabel inside the cloned LotteryCard
Here:

local clone = LotteryCard:Clone()
clone.LotteryCard.SurfaceGui.TextLabel.Text = text
clone.Parent = game.Players[player.Name].Backpack

I see. I tried that but forgot that I’m cloning a tool and didn’t path into the lottery card part itself. Thank you so much.
