Unfortunately, as this is a mapping flaw, it is also relevant to any new maps that people create. It must be publicly disclosed as soon as possible so that other mappers do not duplicate it.

You're absolutely right: this should be disclosed to mappers as soon as possible. However, the issue should be resolved in the official map(s) before we do so, otherwise we'd be promoting exploiting.
We'll make sure the problem gets resolved in the official map ASAP - the mappers and UWE will first have to figure out whether it's a mapping problem, or an engine problem.

Fair point, I'll discuss with mods.

Thanks for the report! ;)
