I tried this function but it doesn’t save the title when i create a new post of post type “pelatologio” but it does save the title if i open the new post and save it again

add_action('acf/save_post', 'cst_check_post_title', 20);
function cst_check_post_title($post_id) {
  if (!is_numeric($post_id)) {
    return;
  }
  $post_type = get_post_type($post_id);
  if ($post_type == 'pelatologio'){
  		$cst_t_date=date("d/m/Y", strtotime($_POST['acf']['field_5a6b3543bf97a']));
		$cst_epi = get_field('epitheto');
		$cst_pat = get_field('onoma_patros');
		$cst_ono = get_field('onoma');
		$cst_title =$cst_epi.' '.mb_strimwidth($cst_pat, 0, 3 ).' '.$cst_ono.' '.$cst_t_date;
	  	$data['post_title'] = $cst_title;
  }else if ($post_type == 'parastatika'){
  		$data['post_title'] = 'Απόδειξη Παροχής Υπηρεσιών #';
  }
  wp_update_post( $data );
}

i tried using the $_POST[‘acf’] way as well but that one doesn’t seem to work either with the acf/save_post for the initial save i have considered using acf/save_post with $_POST[‘acf’] and lower the priority to 10 and see if that would work for both New Posts and Updated Posts
