Teleport script can't find first child?

I was looking for a teleport script in public models to learn more about it. I found a working one and tried to copy it over and it ended up not working. So I literally copy and pasted it to see if it would work that way. But unfortunately not. It is printing everything but "wow" and "We Did It Bois" In my output. I have two parts inside of a model named "Teles" these parts are named "teleport1" and "teleport2". This is Teleport 1's script. It always returns with

Koala lel cool
nil
No Telelocation

I have literally looked over this hundreds of times looking for whats wrong but I can't get a hold of it. It looks as if it can't find the child of Tele named as "teleport2". As it is returning with "nil".


function onTouched(part)
    if part.Parent ~= nil then
        print("Koala")
    local h = part.Parent:findFirstChild("Humanoid")
        if h~=nil then
            print("lel")
            local teleportfrom=script.Parent.Enabled.Value
            if teleportfrom~=0 then
                print("cool")
                if h==humanoid then
                    print("wow")
                return
                end
                local teleportto=script.Parent.Parent:FindFirstChild("teleport2")
                print(teleportto)
                if teleportto~=nil then
                    print("We Did It Bois")
                    local torso = h.Parent.Torso
                    local location = {teleportto.Position}
                    local i = 1

                    local x = location[i].x
                    local y = location[i].y
                    local z = location[i].z

                    x = x + math.random(-1, 1)
                    z = z + math.random(-1, 1)
                    y = y + math.random(2, 3)

                    local cf = torso.CFrame
                    local lx = 0
                    local ly = y
                    local lz = 0

                    script.Parent.Enabled.Value=0
                    teleportto.Enabled.Value=0
                    torso.CFrame = CFrame.new(Vector3.new(x,y,z), Vector3.new(lx,ly,lz))
                    wait(3)
                    script.Parent.Enabled.Value=1
                    teleportto.Enabled.Value=1
                else
                    print("No telelocation")
                end
            end
        end
    end
end

script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouched)

In order to teleport a player, all you need to do is use the CFrame property on the player's HumanoidRootPart. For example, you might want to do something like this in your teleport1 brick (of course, you will need to tailor it to your needs). Simple:

I have not tested this script-in game, so if you get any errors using the script please let me know.

script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(part)
    if not part.Parent and not part.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then return end -- This makes sure that an actual character is touching the brick. First all of all, we make sure that the part that touched has a parent, and then we make sure that there is a humanoid in the part's parent (this is a good way to make sure we are dealing with a player). If neither of those conditions are met, then we "return".
    local character = part.Parent -- This is the character model that we want to move.
    character.CFrame = CFrame.new(Vector3.new(0, 0, 0)) -- The vector3 is the position on the 3D axis that you want your player to move to. In your case you will probably want to set the position to the position of your teleport2.
end)
