Teleport spell

It's very interesting idea to add teleport spell as "a monster attack". I know this is alreary possible with a set of triggers/teleporters, however the spell would be much more effective (and quick!) way.

So, I join the Beowuuf question.

Sounds like an interesting idea, you maybe have control over the distance teleported, or even a specific destination. Imagine you get hit with one and end up re-materializing over a 3 level pit drop, ouch.

Implemented for V0.35

There's a new attack method ATTACK_METHOD_TELEPORT which can be used by both monsters and items (and therefore the party). It will move the monster or party respectively to a random location. It will not teleport through walls or doors, but can move the monster/party across a pit. Of course, as the location is random, it might teleport you over a pit...
