When creating 'leaderstats' if I add a wait it does not show up?

I need to add this wait to allow other scripts to generate their leaderstats before mine, and I don't know what those scripts are as this will be a public script, so when I attempt to do:

local leaderstats = player:FindFirstChild("leaderstats");
local moneyStat = player:FindFirstChild(settings["MoneyName"]);
		
if (leaderstats == nil) then
	leaderstats = Instance.new("IntValue", player);
	leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats";
end

if (moneyStat == nil) then
	moneyStat = Instance.new("IntValue", leaderstats);
	moneyStat .Name = settings["MoneyName"];
end

It works fine as the 'leaderstat' and the moneyStat IntValue are inside the player but they do not show up for the player's leaderboard.

Trying reading over this.

Also, you are trying to find local leaderstats = player:FindFirstChild("leaderstats"); before it is even created. That could be part of the issue.
