How do I make it so that when a player spawns, they start with an item?

Try this:

How can I start the players with a certain item I want them to start with?

Place a lifecycle device and wire it to an item granter. Configure the item granter with what you want to grant the player at the start of the game. Lifecycle devices trigger when the game starts, and by wiring it to the item granter the item granter will run when the game starts.
