What to do to reproduce this:

Make a two level hold, with the first level entrance containing a stair going to the next level.

Now create a second hold.

Copy the first hold's first level entrance room with the stair in it and paste it into the second hold's first level entrance.

Make sure the stairs in the second hold are set to "First level" or whatever the first level is called (Just to show that changing stair destinations in the second hold have no effect on this).

Now either play the second hold normally or playtest it. Go down the stairs. You should, instead of going back to the first level of the second hold, end up on the second level of he first hold.

Wesley forgot to mention DROD crashing if the original hold has been deleted in the meantime...see the original post for that comment.

Game on,

I appreciate you two pointing this out. It'll be worked on, but I have no idea when or whether we'll do another 1.6 patch. In any event, the fix'll be in 1.7.

Whew, this is fixed! Not too bad, just had to reset the room exits whenever a room was being copied/moved to a different hold. (Actually, I did this for any time a room moves to a different level.) Look for this in the next patch.
