Note: Wait! Stop! Before you copy this actor's definition into your mod, remember the following things:
  1. You do not need to copy that actor, since it is already defined.
  2. In fact, it's not just useless, it's actually harmful as it can cause problems.
  3. If you want to modify it, or use a modified version, using inheritance is the way to go.
  4. The actor definitions here are put on the wiki for reference purpose only. Learn from them, don't copy them.
  5. There is only one exception: if what you want is changing Ammo capacity, you need to create a new type from Ammo.

Classes: TeleportFog

The Teleport Fog is a special effect flash that is spawned when an actor teleports and, by default, when an actor morphs or unmorphs. Teleport Fogs set the teleporting actor as their target, so actor manipulation via pointers is possible. This includes when an actor (un)morphs.
