.ChildAdded not working on backpack

[smoky briar]

not sure why this doesnt work

[sour jacinth]

When u equip a tool, it will be a child of char instead

[smoky briar]

ye but when u unequip it

it goes back into th ebackpack

shouldnt that trigger backpack.childadded

[sour jacinth]

Yeah

Is this the full script?

[smoky briar]

its under a players.playeradded:connect function

i wanted to set up a listener

when the player joins

[sour jacinth]

So check if players.playeradded triggers by adding a print statement

[smoky briar]

it is

[sour jacinth]

Also is this a local script

[smoky briar]

server

[sour jacinth]

Does the char die after the spawn before u trigger the childadded event?

[smoky briar]

no

this is all it is

but it does nothing

[sour jacinth]

Any error output then

[smoky briar]

nope

i genuinely have no clue why this doesnt work

[sour jacinth]

So does the first hi fire?

[smoky briar]

yes

[sour jacinth]

[smoky briar]

this has to be cursed

cuz

it works in my other project

[sour jacinth]

That happens sometimes

Try restarting robloz studio

[smoky briar]

ok

maybe im setting up the listener wrong

idk

ye actually

i dont think i can set up listeners like that off of a playeradded event

[sour jacinth]

Trying waiting for the backpack a bit if that still doesn't work

[smoky briar]

that didnt change anything

[pulsar geyser]

what do u genuinely do about stuff like this where u can't find the error in a script

[real swallow]

The backpack is a new instance every time you respawn

[sour jacinth]

Yeah, his character never dies though

[real swallow]

Print the backpack

also why players is without the local thingy

you can also try it on character added
