 warpstone can be removed by shift-punching the warp stone.
 
+All warps are delayed by ~5 seconds. You have to stand still for
+that duration, otherwise the warp will be cancelled. This may avoid
+warp spamming and warping out of combat a bit. There's a bit
+of variation in time due to the timer resolution in minetest
+being rather large.
