Leaderboards will not show up, can anyone help me as to why?
My code:
function onEnter(player)
local ld = Instance.new("IntValue")
ld.Parent = player
ld.Name = "leaderstats"
local value1 = Instance.new("IntValue")
value1.Parent = ld
value1.Name = "Points"
value1.Value = game.DataStoreService:Get
end
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(onEnter)
for i,v in pairs(game.Players:GetChildren()) do -- So that it works in Play Solo.
onEnter(v)
end
Writing a currency system. Really don't want to make a gui just for "points" but will if need be.
If anyone knows why it won't work, I'd love to know.

You should use this as it creates the stat and saves it. Also, game.DataStoreService:Get isn't a thing.
local DataStore = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local ds = DataStore:GetDataStore("PointsSave")
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
local leader = Instance.new("Folder",player)
leader.Name = "leaderstats"
local Cash = Instance.new("IntValue",leader)
Cash.Name = "Points" --Name of your leaderstat
Cash.Value = ds:GetAsync(player.UserId) or 100 --Change to how much points the player will start out with
ds:SetAsync(player.UserId, Cash.Value)
Cash.Changed:connect(function()
ds:SetAsync(player.UserId, Cash.Value)
end)
end)
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:connect(function(player)
ds:SetAsync(player.UserId, player.leaderstats.Points.Value)
end)
This script should go in the ServerScriptService.

Just put .Parent before .Name
local ld = Instance.new("IntValue")
ld.Name = "leaderstats"
ld.Parent = player
Do that with every other stat too
