odd area

RCV: On the Government map, behind the prison, there is a little area of
"walkable" terain, with a door, which is blue when you have the mnouse
pointer over it. However, it seems impossible to get to the region in front
of the door [at x:790 ; y:557] to try to open it. I tried dimension dooring
to it but the spell won't work to that location, I assume because of the
impassable terrain in between you and the door area.

Anyone have any ideas on this, is it just a weird, non-playable region
that looks playable, or is there some othe way to get to and from the door
area?

I haven't ever had cluaconsole running so I couldn't "teleport" myself
there, but does that work? And is there any reason to do so?

Just can't stand a mystery.... 🙂

Hmm, it's an interesting place. A quick check with Infinity Explorer
shows that a large area there can be walked over, but it's unreachable.
There is a door there, but no entry point (place where you appear after
exiting an area), or trigger to move you to another area.

There's two reasons for this I can think of: it may have been for a bit
of realism, there is an openable door there, you can walk in that part of
the area, but you can't reach it; or it's part of something that was
removed (perhaps a quest in the prison, or part of a larger quest in the
Government, which always seemed rather empty to me).

Sorry, no secret hideouts with a fight between you and several dragons,
giving you Holy Avengers and Staffs of the Magi usable by everyone in
your party.

RCV: Thanks, this is what I expected. I thought it might have been like
that staircase from Merkrath's lair that if you take the wrong "side" ends
up with you on the wall of [I think] the Bridge district.

Thanks for looking into it.
