Astral travel... is marked as bug in the new bug thread list, yet the spell has worked perfectly everytime I've casted the spell.
Judging by the reports I've been seeing, there has been problems with that spell (at least when cast from the Gate Stone), Faery Trod and Stygian Paths as noted by the discussion thread referred to in the report.

Frankly, I'm going to have to ask you whether you are referring to Astral Travel or Gateway here.
Gateway works correctly... and so does Astral Travel. From my testing Astral Travel works every time. The #startspell only is available for one turn so you'll need to setup a map giving yourself astral travel and 2 astral mages with randomequip_4 which will supply the astral gems to cast the spell. I'm reporting they both work correctly because we don't want the developers wasting time investigating something which is not broken. The only piece which might be busted is the GateStone item.

Gateway works and always has. The reason why I have to ask is your prior bug report where you kept talking about Ritual of Rebirth over and over but were describing behavior of Twiceborn. I want to make sure you're not confusing your spells again.
I've never reported bugs with Twiceborn or Ritual of Rebirth so you're confusing me with someone else.

If you want to question my judgment on which bug reports to include in the shortlist, then you should provide something other than an anecdote to counter the reports of others. Or you can show me how I've erroneously attributed this bug report to someone when it has not been reported by anyone.
I'm questioning the bug report because I have yet to experience this spell failing. Your confusion is the bug is not the astral spell which works great... it's the gatestone item. If you spend just 8mins of testing Astral Travel you would see the spell works.
