Can't help you with Wad Author specifically but this is how
teleporters work :

- Set linedef type to, for example, 97 (WR teleport).

- Orient linedef so that, when the player walks over the
  linedef, it's from the RIGHT side of it.

- Insert teleport landing spot (thing type 14).

- Find an unused tag number. Let's call it N.

- Set sector tag of linedef to N.

- Set linedef tag of sector where the teleport landing spot is
  to N.
