AR0333 Guard Barracks

[Smoketest]

As specified in the title, AR0333 has its exits and transition triggers reversed.

 

You leave AR0332 by a northeastern exit, but appear on the northeastern side of AR0333. If you try to leave AR0333 by the southwestern doorway, you'll end up outside. One could try to justify this by the odd layout of the building in the Docks District, but for that matter the rooms are rotated 90 degrees so it still doesn't quite fit. I went for the optical fix.

 

I left the structures alone and switched the names as well as the target areas in each transition. This allows me to leave AR0332 by the NE doorway and arrive in AR0333 by the SW doorway. I can then go back outside by taking the NE doorway in AR0333, or I can return to AR0332 (NE side) by taking the SW doorway of AR0333.

 

Again, this may or may not be viewed as a bug. The transitions certainly work, but it made me think I was in Watcher's Keep again.

If they were simply off by a minor rotation instead of completely reversed, I might think otherwise--but this is definitely a bug.
