[Help!] HopperBin Not Working In Backpack GUI LocalScript

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

In my backpack GUI I have, that’s supposed to be from 2006-2010, I’m trying to add support for HopperBins, regardless if they’re depricated or not. It shows up in the GUI if you have it, but it doesn’t equip in the player. I have the code working, and the Output doesn’t say anything. I could appreciate help with this. I even tried a regular tool with the HopperBin’s script in it, unchecked “RequiresHandle”, and still nothing. Anyway. Here’s the code. Try to Ctrl + F for “HopperBin”.

local Player = Game:GetService('Players').LocalPlayer
local Mouse = Player:GetMouse()

			Parent.ChildAdded:wait()
		end
	end
end

coroutine.resume(coroutine.create(function()
	local Blocked = {'PlayerList', 'Backpack', 'Health'}
	while true do -- just to be safe :-)
		for Index, Core in pairs(Blocked) do
			Game:GetService('StarterGui'):SetCoreGuiEnabled(Core, false)

HopperBin instances cannot be equipped through Humanoid:EquipTool (as, y’know, they aren’t a Tool). As far as I’m aware, the only way to equip one is through the :ToggleSelect() method, however it’s locked to CoreScripts.

There’s no point in adding support for HopperBin instances. Ff you don’t plan on using them (which you shouldn’t, use Tools instead) you shouldn’t bother trying to add support for them. In this case, it’s not exactly possible regardless.

That’s unfortunate. Oh well, then.

hey I know that its been 5 years but i have aditional details.
you can add hopperbins to a players backpack using

local player = -- your player logic here

-- this should be server side i think --
local clone = instance.new("HopperBin", player.Backpack)
