Not Used: Teleport graphics

I don't know about y'all, but I use teleportation extensively ... any chance the pretty green effect can be changed - if nothing else, for color - like tensor's disc, and that sort of thing.

Just curious ...

Whilst we're on topic... if a caster casts teleport, there is an awesome red-swirly thing that happens during the casting animation.. yet if cast from an item or scroll just the green visual shows... any chance that can be changed so that the red-swirly thing happens all the time ?

Not going to use this one. For thematic reasons, all the teleportation spells use the same hue for visuals (the green-yellow mix)...teleport, transference, summon ally, phoenix's teleportation capture, word of recall...they're all tied together. It's also part of the spell icon for almost every "planar travel" spell and the class icon for Farstep Master. It's even the base coloration for the portal out of Limbo when you make a mistake with the Wanderer's Portals.

As far as the casting visual goes, that's part of the spellcasting animations. When activating scrolls, potions, or other items, casting animations/visuals never show up. I see it as kind of a role-playing thing: you can either shortcut things with a magic item, or witness the power of someone actually casting the spells with their own abilities.
