Summary0006566: Teleport spell stops all falling damage.
DescriptionAny amount of falling damage can be averted if you teleport even once.

I tried teleporting up and up and up, the player kept falling faster. I let him drop and I took no falling damage whatsoever.

It is convenient that you can't teleport off a cliff and die, but I don't think it's intended.

I'm adding this here because I'm pretty sure it is related.

Teleporting DOWN will cause falling damage.

Now what I am pretty sure is happening is that the location falling damage is calculated from isn't being altered correctly when you use Teleport, and remains set to where ever you initially cast it.

For example, I walk off a cliff and take 31 damage.
If I teleport straight down to the bottom of the same cliff I will take 31 damage.
If I teleport up repeatedly then let myself fall to the bottom of the cliff I will take 31 damage

Thanks!

* Fixed a longstanding issue where lesser teleport would wind up causing you too much or too little falling damage based on how you used it. Now when you teleport it puts you out at the other end at zero vertical velocity so that you start falling from that location fresh (for better or for worse, and rather like you'd expect with teleporting).
