Gamepass tool gets deleted when player is reset

foolskarp · August 28, 2020, 8:48pm

The title sounds complicated and probably doesn’t make a lot of sense, but it should be a simple fix.
I made a gamepass script where if you own a certain gamepass, it gives you a tool from repstore. the script is in SSS.

However, when you spawn in the first time, you have the tool, but once you reset, the tool dissappears. Here’s a video.

And here’s the script

local MarketplaceService = game:GetService(“MarketplaceService”)
local Players = game:GetService(“Players”)
local repstore = game:GetService(“ReplicatedStorage”)

local gamePassID = 11435761

local function onPlayerAdded(player)

local hasPass = false

local success, message = pcall(function()
hasPass = MarketplaceService:UserOwnsGamePassAsync(player.UserId, gamePassID)
end)

if not success then
warn("Error while checking if player has pass: " … tostring(message))
  return
end

if hasPass == true then
print(player.Name … " owns the game pass with ID " … gamePassID)
local backpack = player:FindFirstChildOfClass(“Backpack”)
if backpack then
repstore[“Huge donator sign.”].Parent = backpack
end

end
end

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(onPlayerAdded)

Here’s a solution to your problem:

local MarketplaceService = game:GetService(“MarketplaceService”)
local Players = game:GetService(“Players”)
local repstore = game:GetService(“ReplicatedStorage”)

local gamePassID = 11435761

local function onPlayerAdded(player)

	local hasPass = false

	local success, message = pcall(function()
		hasPass = MarketplaceService:UserOwnsGamePassAsync(player.UserId, gamePassID)
	end)

	if not success then
		warn("Error while checking if player has pass: " … tostring(message))
	  	return
	end

	if hasPass == true then
		print(player.Name … " owns the game pass with ID " … gamePassID)
		local backpack = player:FindFirstChildOfClass(“Backpack”)
		if backpack then
			repstore[“Huge donator sign.”].Parent = backpack
		end
	end
	
	player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function()
		if hasPass == true then
			print(player.Name … " owns the game pass with ID " … gamePassID)
			local backpack = player:FindFirstChildOfClass(“Backpack”)
			if backpack then
				repstore[“Huge donator sign.”].Parent = backpack
			end
		end
	end)
end

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(onPlayerAdded)

You only run your script when the player is added. Instead do player.CharacterAdded function so you know when the actual character is loaded.

still doesnt work

Oh, sorry, I have overlooked some small problems. By the way, whenever giving a player something that you will need to give multiple times, you should :Clone() it first.
Here’s code that should hopefully work:

local MarketplaceService = game:GetService("MarketplaceService")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local repstore = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")

local gamePassID = 11435761

local function onPlayerAdded(player)

	local hasPass = false

	local success, message = pcall(function()
		hasPass = MarketplaceService:UserOwnsGamePassAsync(player.UserId, gamePassID)
	end)

	if not success then
		warn("Error while checking if player has pass: "..tostring(message))
	  	return
	end
	
	player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function()
		if hasPass == true then
			print(player.Name .." owns the game pass with ID ".. gamePassID)
			local backpack = player:FindFirstChildOfClass("Backpack")
			if backpack then
				repstore["Huge donator sign."]:Clone().Parent = backpack
			end
		end
	end)
end

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(onPlayerAdded)

Also, you should check the output in Studio whenever something doesn’t work.

yet again, didn’t work, looked in output, nothing popped up…

Discgolftaco231 · August 28, 2020, 9:33pm

Make sure in addition to adding the tool to backpack, also add it to StarterGear.

foolskarp · August 28, 2020, 9:37pm

nevermind! it works perfectly fine.

foolskarp · August 28, 2020, 10:21pm

oh nevermind it actually doesnt work for some reasonm

BeyondTheEgde · August 28, 2020, 10:36pm

i think you can clone it to starter gear also

foolskarp · August 28, 2020, 10:51pm

still didnt work…
…

BeyondTheEgde · August 28, 2020, 11:24pm

did you clone it to both startergear and backpack?

foolskarp · August 28, 2020, 11:58pm

is this what its supposed to look like?

local MarketplaceService = game:GetService(“MarketplaceService”)
local Players = game:GetService(“Players”)
local repstore = game:GetService(“ReplicatedStorage”)

local gamePassID = 11435761

local function onPlayerAdded(player)

local hasPass = false

local success, message = pcall(function()
hasPass = MarketplaceService:UserOwnsGamePassAsync(player.UserId, gamePassID)
end)

if not success then
warn("Error while checking if player has pass: "…tostring(message))
return
end

player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function()
if hasPass == true then
print(player.Name …" owns the game pass with ID "… gamePassID)
local backpack = player:FindFirstChildOfClass(“Backpack”)
local startergear = player:FindFirstChildOfClass(“StarterGear”)
if backpack then
local clonedtool = repstore.Donator:Clone()
clonedtool.Parent = backpack
clonedtool.Parent = startergear
end
end
end)
end

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(onPlayerAdded)

You could use the Character.Humanoid.Died function.

BeyondTheEgde · August 29, 2020, 12:08am

   local MarketplaceService = game:GetService("MarketplaceService")
   local Players = game:GetService("Players")
   local repstore = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")

   local gamePassID = 11435761

   local function onPlayerAdded(player)

local hasPass = false

local success, message = pcall(function()
	hasPass = MarketplaceService:UserOwnsGamePassAsync(player.UserId, gamePassID)
end)

if not success then
	warn("Error while checking if player has pass: " .. tostring(message))
	
	return
end

if hasPass == true then
	print(player.Name .. " owns the game pass with ID " .. gamePassID)
	local backpack = player:FindFirstChildOfClass("Backpack")
	local startergear =  player:FindFirstChildOfClass("StarterGear")
	if backpack then
		repstore["Huge donator sign."]:Clone().Parent = backpack--one to backpack
		repstore["Huge donator sign."]:Clone().Parent = startergear--one to startergear
	end
	
end
 end

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(onPlayerAdded)

BeyondTheEgde · August 29, 2020, 12:10am

are there any errors in the output?

foolskarp · August 29, 2020, 12:11am

BeyondTheEgde · August 29, 2020, 12:12am

i think i accidently changed the gamepass id copy it again and see if it works

foolskarp · August 29, 2020, 12:13am
