For some reason when a player rejoins the game really fast after fisrt join the gui doesnt display the values like the reputation or totaltokens mostly but the other ones sometimes too and it really only happens in public game not in studio is there a reason for this? i’ve tried numerous waiting methods none work

local RS = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Player = Players.LocalPlayer
task.wait(2)
-- Wait for child objects with default wait time of 5 seconds
local Stats = Player:WaitForChild("PhysicalStats", 3)
local Multis = Player:WaitForChild("Multipliers", 3)
local ReputationFolder = Player:WaitForChild("ReputationFolder", 3)
local CurrencyFolder = Player:WaitForChild("Currency", 3)

local MultiFrame = script.Parent.Parent:WaitForChild("MultiFrame", 3)
local MultiInfo = MultiFrame and MultiFrame:WaitForChild("InfoText", 3)

local Modules = RS:WaitForChild("Modules", 3)
local MultiModule = Modules and require(Modules:WaitForChild("Multis", 3))

	}

	for i = 1, #abbreviations do

Is it a datastore problem?
That most likely becouse you don’t have a session locking
If you want code example you can view ProfileStore’s source code to see as to how it could be implemented

so something like this

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	local profileKey = "PlayerData_" .. player.UserId
	local profile = ProfileStore:LoadProfileAsync(profileKey)

	if profile then
		profile:Reconcile()

		profile:AddUserId(player.UserId)

		profile:ListenToRelease(function()
			Profiles[profileKey] = nil
			if player and player:IsDescendantOf(game) then
				player:Kick("Your data was loaded from another server.")
			end
		end)

		if not player:IsDescendantOf(game) then
			profile:Release()
			return
		end

		Profiles[profileKey] = profile

		Reputation.InitializeStatus(player)
	else
		player:Kick("Your data is currently being used in another server. Please try again.")
	end
end)

-- Player removing: Release profile safely
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(player)
	local profileKey = "PlayerData_" .. player.UserId
	local profile = Profiles[profileKey]

	if profile then
		profile:Release() -- 
		Profiles[profileKey] = nil
	else
		warn("No profile found to release for player:", player.Name)
	end
end)```
