Don’t you want every team to have a sword? Or just one team?

Scientists can’t explain why such simple scripts require 20+ replies for the solution.

The player won’t get a sword if they respawn.

#22

Prolly forgot about that, one second.

#23

Only one team… since its like a murder mystery game

#24 
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Teams = game:GetService("Teams")

local sword = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Sword")

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
		if player.Team == Teams.Spys then
			local humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
			local swordClone = sword:Clone()
			swordClone.Parent = player.Backpack
		end
	end)
end)

Yeah, I think this fixes it…

#25

That didnt work There wasnt even an error

#26 
local function removeSword(player)
    local sword = player.Backpack:FindFirstChild("Sword") or player.Character:FindFirstChild("Sword")
    if sword then sword:Destroy() end
end

local function giveSword(player)
    removeSword(player)
    player.Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid"):EquipTool(game.ReplicatedStorage.Sword:Clone())
end

local function checkplayer(player)
    if player.Team.Name == "Spys" then
        giveSword(player)
    else
        removeSword(player)
    end
end

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
    player:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Team"):Connect(function()
        checkplayer(player)
    end)
    player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function()
        checkplayer(player)
    end)
end)

Updated to fix below:

15:17:52.534 Team is not a valid member of Model “ImNotAN00b_0kay” - Server - Script:12

#28

Let’s try putting the sword in the backpack instead…

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Teams = game:GetService("Teams")

local sword = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Sword")

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
		if player.Team == Teams.Spys then
			local humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
			local swordClone = sword:Clone()
			swordClone.Parent = player.Backpack
		end
	end)
end)

Does the tool have a Handle inside? If “RequiresHandle” is enabled but it does not have an object named “Handle” inside it would do things like this possibly.
