iTween Help Please MoveTo not working

Hi, I am currently trying to program an AI script in JavaScript and I decided to use itween for the walking between waypoints and it seems to not like my itween script section. The problem is in the function Update () section, specifically the 4 "if (waypointSelect == X) { ........}" Im really not that good at itween and i did try the tutorials for moveTo like iTween.MoveTo(gameObject{"y": 1, time: 1} ) but it wouldn't take it. So is there any way to alter the script where the problem is to make it do what i want it to do (go to the waypoints)?

var isShooting = false;
var isWalking = false;
var isNearPlayer = false;
var LookAtTarget : Transform;
var waypointSelect = 0;
var prefabBullet : GameObject;
var shootForce : float = 7000;
var Player : Transform;
var DistToPlayer : float;
var Waypoint1 : Transform;
var Waypoint2 : Transform;
var Waypoint3 : Transform;
var Waypoint4 : Transform;

function Shoot () {

        var instanceBullet = Instantiate(prefabBullet, transform.position, transform.rotation); 
        instanceBullet.rigidbody.AddForce(transform.forward * shootForce);
        }

function ShootIng () {

    if (isShooting == true) {
        transform.LookAt(LookAtTarget);
        InvokeRepeating("Shoot", 1, 0.5);
        }
        else
        {
            CancelInvoke("Shoot");
        }
}

function Walking () {

    if (isWalking == true) {    
    waypointSelect = (Random.Range(1, 4));
    }
}

function AIControl () {

    if (isNearPlayer == true) {
        Invoke("Shooting", 0.5);
        WaitForSeconds (6);
            Invoke("Walking", 0.5);
        }
        else
        {
            CancelInvoke("Shooting");
            CancelInvoke("Walking");
        }
}

function Update () {

    if (Player) {
        var dist = Vector3.Distance(Player.position, transform.position);
        DistToPlayer = (dist);
        }

    if (waypointSelect == 1) {
        iTween.MoveTo(Waypoint1);
        }

    if (waypointSelect == 2) {
        iTween.MoveTo(Waypoint2);
        }

    if (waypointSelect == 3) {
        iTween.MoveTo(Waypoint3);
        }

    if (waypointSelect == 4) {
        iTween.MoveTo(Waypoint4);
        }

    if (DistToPlayer < 10) {
        isNearPlayer = true;
        }
        else
        {
            isNearPlayer = false;
        }

    if (isNearPlayer == true) {
        Invoke("AIControl", 0.5);
        }
}

Check if your if’s really execute and do you call iTween properly

if(waypointSelected == 1)
   Debug.Log("Waypoint 1 selected");
   iTween.MoveTo(yourobject.gameObject, waypoint1.position, 2f);
   //alternatively call it with Hash parameter, check the iTween documentation

You should see the message in the console, and if you select new waypoint, new iTween call will kill the first call and continue moving in new direction.

Hope this helps.
