Backpack Problem - Am i the only one?

  1. What do I want to achieve?

I wanted a system where you could pick up items using a bag like in Dead Rails!

------- I also want to clarify, I added a system where it will spawn random items when you do something!

  1. What is the issue?

The issues are that it is unreliable sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t work.

  1. What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?

I tried many solutions, including scrolling the Devforum but I can’t find any solution!

In advance, thank you :grinning: !

My Script in SeverScriptService:

local CollectionService = game:GetService("CollectionService")

local remoteEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent
local part = game.Workspace.spawn
local folder = game.ReplicatedStorage.randomItems

local module = require(script:WaitForChild("ReturnAmount"))

local x = part.Size.X * 0.5
local y = part.Size.Y * 0.5
local z = part.Size.Z * 0.5


game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	local value = Instance.new("StringValue", player)
	value.Name = "recentPickedItem"
end)

function returnItem()
	local randomItems = math.random(1, #folder:GetChildren())

	local item = folder:GetChildren()[randomItems]
	
	local clone = item:Clone()
	
	return clone
end

local debounce = true

remoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
	
	local clone = returnItem()
	local prompt = clone.prompt
	
	clone.Parent = game.Workspace
	clone.Position = part.Position + Vector3.new(math.random(0 - x, x), math.random(0 - y, y), math.random(0 - z, z))
	clone.Anchored = false
	clone.CanCollide = false
	
	clone.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
		if hit.Name == "Baseplate" then
			clone.CanCollide = true
		end
	end)
	
	prompt.Triggered:Connect(function(player)
		
		local amount = module.ReturnAmount()
		
		if debounce == true and amount ~= 11 then

			debounce = false
			
			local recentItemValue = player:FindFirstChild("recentPickedItem")
			local clonedItem = clone:Clone()
			clonedItem.Parent = nil
			local success, errorMessage = pcall(function()
				clonedItem.Parent = player.Backpack	
			end)
			
			local tags = CollectionService:GetTagged("recentTag")
			
			if success and tags then
				
				for _, v in ipairs(tags) do
					v:RemoveTag("recentTag")
					v:Destroy()
				end
				
				task.wait()
				print(clonedItem.Parent)
				clonedItem.Parent = player.Backpack	
				clonedItem:AddTag("recentTag")
				recentItemValue.Value = clonedItem.Name
				debounce = true
			elseif success and not tags then
				task.wait()
				clone:Destroy()
				print(clonedItem.Parent)
				clonedItem.Parent = player.Backpack	
				clonedItem:AddTag("recentTag")
				recentItemValue.Value = clonedItem.Name
				debounce = true
			else
				warn(errorMessage)
			end
			
			
		else
			warn("To many duplicates of items")
			
		end
	end)
	
end)

My module script, used for accessing the amount in the folder making sure I couldn’t pick up something when my backpack is full and for displaying my amount on the backpack:

local module = {}


function module.ReturnAmount()
	
	game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
		local amount = 0

		for i, v in pairs(player.Backpack:GetDescendants()) do
			if v:IsA("Part") or v:IsA("TrussPart") then
				amount +=1
			end
		end
		return amount
	end)
end

return module

Finally my local Script located in my tool ()

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local HumanoidRootPart = Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")

local tool = script.Parent
local buildboardGui = tool.Handle.BillboardGui
local text = buildboardGui.Amount

local CollectionService = game:GetService("CollectionService")
local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")

task.wait(1)

local recentItemValue = player:WaitForChild("recentPickedItem")

if not recentItemValue then
	local success, errorMessage = pcall(function()
		recentItemValue = player:WaitForChild("recentPickedItem")
	end)
	
	if success then 
		return
	else
		warn(errorMessage)
	end
end

local returnAmountModule = require(script:WaitForChild("ReturnAmount"))

local allowTOinput = nil

local debounce = true

local function userInput()
	UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(input, gameProcesseedEvent)
		if gameProcesseedEvent then return end
		
		if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.F and allowTOinput == true then
			local amount = returnAmountModule.ReturnAmount()
			
			
			
			if amount >= 1 then
				local item = CollectionService:GetTagged("recentTag")
				
				if not item then return end
				
				local clone
				
				for _, v in ipairs(item) do
					if debounce == true then
						debounce = false
						clone = v:Clone()
						clone.Parent = workspace
						clone.CFrame = HumanoidRootPart.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,0,-4) 
						clone:RemoveTag("recentTag")
						v:Destroy()
						
						task.wait(.3)
						debounce = true
					end
				end
				
			elseif amount == 0 then
				warn("Cant drop, no items to drop")
				return
			end			
		end
	end)
end

local function onEquipped()
	allowTOinput = true
	userInput()
end

local function onUnequipped()
	allowTOinput = false
end

tool.Equipped:Connect(onEquipped)
tool.Unequipped:Connect(onUnequipped)

while true do
	task.wait(.1)
	
	local amount = returnAmountModule.ReturnAmount()
	
	if amount ~= 11 then
		text.Text = amount .. "/ 10"		
	elseif amount >= 11 then
		return
	end
	
end
