Summary0010138: Unusual sub-level arrow behavior
DescriptionAttached is a screenshot of the Main sub-level for Ivanwood Marsh. (It's the 2nd screen you visit.) The directions west and south have blue squares around them, indicating that those sub-levels are pointing back to those tiles. (Those have been really helpful in the past!) Going east to D, however, there are no blue boxes around those exit arrows.

On that adjacent screen, the arrows pointing back to Main *do* have blue boxes around them. I see no reason why the blue boxes do not appear on Main as referenced by D.

Testing this in gameplay, I found that while the two screens do connect and allow travel between them, Darrell faces the opposite direction after he crosses between them, as if he had walked backwards.

I have found that similar behavior exists for the Main screens of Phoenix Forest, Snow Hill, and the Central Wastes. (Didn't test all the other OW main screens, other than Ivanwood Marsh, described above.)

It appears that on each Main screen, the arrows leading to sub-levels do not have blue borders around them. If you walk east at the start of Phoenix Forest, for example, you'll be facing east on the next screen as you should, but walking west back to Main will have you facing the wrong way, as will walking east a 2nd time.

This behavior does not occur when walking south, at least -- you will always face south or north as expected while walking back and forth across that border.

Regarding the direction the player faces when walking east or west: I've found that it's happening on other sub-levels too, not just those connected to Main screens. For example, between 003-K and 003-H.
