How to tell if Game Teleport works?

I am making a random place finder, and I have a function to teleport to the game. There are 2 effects to fire when the teleport works, and when the teleport doesn’t.

Yes, I have tried this in-game outside of studio.

This script is a remote event in a GUI.

Keep in mind sometimes the ID leads to a game that isn’t public, that’s what the “teleport didn’t work” effect is for.

Sometimes the “teleport worked” effect appears, even when the teleport doesn’t work.

I have tried pcall, and haven’t found a way to properly make it work.

local t = true --can teleport
local ts = game:GetService("TeleportService") --teleport service
script.Parent.RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr)	
	if t == true then
		t = false
		ts:Teleport(game.Lighting.CoreGameID.Value,plr)
		
		local teleport = true --determines the effect
		ts.TeleportInitFailed:Connect(function(plre, teleportResult, errorMessage) --detects when error occurs
			if plre.UserId == plr.UserId then --make sure player is our player
				teleport = false --sets to false for effect
			end
		end)
		
		wait(.5) --I gotta add this or the code always returns true for some reason

		if teleport == false then
			local aaa =	script.Parent.TpfailS:Clone() --warning text label
			aaa.Parent = script.Parent.Parent
			aaa.Visible = true
			local strings = plr.Name.." is teleporting!"
			game.Debris:AddItem(aaa,2)

		elseif teleport == true then
			local caa = game.Lighting.Part.Attachment:Clone() --teleport effect
			game.Debris:AddItem(caa,5)
			caa.Steal:Play()
			caa.Parent = plr.Character.PrimaryPart
		end
		
		
		wait(2)
		t = true --enable ability to teleport again
	end
end)
