What does 'IsTeleport' do?

[Ekmek]

Besides the obvious, I guess, does teleport order even work? Dont recall a unit using it? Or is it like rebasing in Civ3? Anyone know?

Its a holdover from CtP1 which wasn't even used in that. The sprite which appears in Martin's avatar , although in blue, is named in some unused files as UNIT_RIFT_GATE. Presumably, it was intended to have this IsTeleport flag, and enable units to move instantly from one place to another.

Thanks IW,

So is it just bits of useless code or is there a way to make it work? I'd like to find a way to rebase immobile units (now that Peter Triggs created immobile code and ranged bombardment).
