The code checks for if the tool is already in someones inventory, but for some reason it doesnt apply if that said tool is equipped, how do i prevent that from happening??

Toolname = "EBR14"

function boop(Player)
 if not Player.Backpack:FindFirstChild(Toolname) then
  local Tool = game.ReplicatedStorage.usedTools[Toolname]:clone() 
  Tool.Parent = Player.Backpack
 end
end
script.Parent.ProximityPrompt.Triggered:connect(boop)

when a player equips a tool the tool is parented to their character, so it wont be in the backpack. when you check if its in their backpack also check if its in their character
