Summary0003998: Staircase can only be accessed by vent
DescriptionI entered an Ice Age office building, and found that the small atrium was supposed to link to a staircase going up, but none of the marked doors went there. Turns out I had to go through the vent in the room to get there. More confusing, the staircase has a door to go back to the atrium.

Hmmm, while it is a bit confusing at first, I'm not sure that this is an actual issue. I just picture it as the vent dropping you near the door, with much of the building being destroyed, afterall. Ill leave it open for discussion.

Sometimes this happens, and it's unavoidable. We try not to have this happen, but given that this is a procedural game you get a number of combination effects on things.

Specifically, here there were too many doors to actually fit them all into the first room that had a vent. So it put a vent instead, since it could fit that, rather than just having no passage at all to the staircase. That doesn't happen super often (usually the vents are actually side passages), but this is kind of an overflow valve for when this sort of thing does happen.
