I haven't played the level, but I bet it was by using 2 shifts.

One to shift to a white screen, and immediately on arrival, shift again to the next screen.

If there's no teleport involved, and only a visual effect, then it most likely is a Custom Object.

If you're referring to Station Sputzna, and in particular to the lightning flash in the storm (like in screen x1031y1007), then I have no idea how he did that, since there's no Shift nor Custom Objects I can see in the editor.

Nevermind, it IS a Custom Object (lightninga.png). It wasn't shown in the editor because Object 51 had no marker (unless you have this update pack XD).

C'mon. it doesn't really hide it. It can still be in the CO folder to grabs. and people with all the CO's icons can still see it.
