      I would not think it should transport spells, as trapdoors are not supposed to

     It seems to teleport spells now, in some maps it is possible to burn 
items in a shop with firespells for example. The problem is when you 
have trapdoors leading into some place in the map where is a teleporter 
for example. The player can cast earth walls on top of the trapdoor and 
the walls fill up the teleporter so the player does not drop into a 
trapdoor after that. Actually after that the player gets transported 
into some other trapdoor that is available in the map...
