This has been known for a while, but there is some funky code with those zones and travelling OUT of them. you can travel INTO them, but you cannot travel out.

Hi!

First of all, thank you for reporting this issue. It has quite a lot to do with how the code for Travel is written, meaning it takes the original author of the code to actually make sense of it.

However, I've spent three weeks in the past trying to make Travel even obey the !travel flag, which forbids travelling in or out of the room flagged as such. Now, I will try to fix even the last 'bugs' related to Travel whenever I'll have the extra time, you can be certain of it. It's just the timeframe in which such will be accomplished that'll differ. :)

If you're able to come up with reasoning why it happens with certain rooms, a theory so to say, I'm more than willing to listen to it. It might help cracking the case.

With best regards,
Niila

The only commonality I see between the 3 zones it that they were all "later developments" meaning when travel was first being put in the game, these zones were not operational. I'm not sure if it helps any, but just throwing it out there.
