i want to make a script to save a player’s inventory after they die. Basically you get your tool back after u die
Use the following script I copied from a topic on the DevForum similar to this one.
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
function OnPlayerAdded(Player)
local SavedTools = {}
local function OnCharacterAdded(Character)
for Index, Tool in pairs(SavedTools) do --Loads all the saved tools from the player's last death
Tool.Parent = Player.Backpack
end
SavedTools = {}
local function OnDied() --Copies all your tools when you die and saves them to a table attached to the player
for Index, Tool in pairs(Player.Backpack:GetChildren()) do
local CopiedTool = Tool:Clone()
table.insert(SavedTools, CopiedTool)
end
for Index, Tool in pairs(Player.Character:GetChildren()) do --Checks if theres a tool being currently used/equipped by the player
if Tool:IsA("Tool") then
local CopiedTool = Tool:Clone()
table.insert(SavedTools, CopiedTool)
end
end
end
Character.Humanoid.Died:Connect(OnDied)
end
Player.CharacterAdded:Connect(OnCharacterAdded)
end
for Index, Player in pairs(Players:GetChildren()) do --Redundency incase a player has joined before the event sets up
OnPlayerAdded(Player)
end
Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(OnPlayerAdded)
use it in serverscriptservice right? and script
Yes. Put it in ServerScriptService as a server script.
Sorry for replying so late, but it duplicates everything in my starterpack, what do I do?
I think you can make a line that checks if saved item’s name does not cover with any of tools in starter pack, tho I believe that after these 15 days you found the solution. If so then I leave this for future generations.
I haven’t tested yet but maybe this would work.
while true do
wait(0.5)
local tool = plr.Backpack:FindFirstChild(“toolname”)
if tool ~= nil then
newtool = yourtool:clone() newtool.Parent = plr.Backpack else
end
end
very simple so i dont really expect it to work but i hope it does
make sure to define plr, the tool, and the findfirstchild part
Coming into this discussion pretty late. What should I put for newtool, yourtool, and where should I put it?
