compact map database creating one-way exits
 
I notice that after compacting my map database, many exits I have made in the past become one-way. Has anyone else seen this issue? It might arise from having a two-way link with an exit stub. As in one room has an east to west, but also an east to nowhere.

I'm not 100% sure on this but I may have seen a similar situation, and as you suggest I believe it may be related to stubs. However I just did a simple test on my local and did not have the problem so there may be something more to this than meets the eye.

At the very least compacting the database is not the sole culprit here.

I occasionally get one way links on my maps. This definitely has something to do with the 'auto connect' process, because one room has the correct link but the connected room just has a stub. I suspect the compacting is highlighting issues like this.

I don't use the autoconnect. But then again, that may be why I see it so rarely.
