Post subject:  Newton Movalpolos gates

When I went to Movalpolos last night, the rotatable gates at F-10 and E/F-7 both had their NE and SW gates open, ie. when approaching from the west the only open route was to the south. The problem is the furnaces to rotate the gates are on the north route from both gates, so it's impossible to rotate the gates currently unless you have some other way into the central section.

From what I understand, those two gates are supposed to always be the opposite of each other, so when one has the SW gate open the other always has the NW open, which means one or the other of the furnaces is always accessible. The last time I visited, the E/F-7 gate did have the NW gate open, so clearly they've been rotated since then. Am I just misunderstanding how these gates are supposed to work, or is there a bug where they can get into an impassible state?

Yeah, I know you can warp past and then use the furnace at the very back, that's not what I'm asking though.

I'm less interested in "how do I get past?" because obviously you can just use the gobbie warp. What I want to know is "aren't these gates supposed to be opposite from each other instead of matching? is this a bug?"

Like, there's the whole bridge with the three rusty levers that you need three people to get across and you have to spin the gates to get everyone into position. If the intended retail solution for that was "sometimes you have to warp someone to the end first" it makes that whole puzzle pointless because why not just warp everyone, you know?

Also I'm not sure that warp is actually in era, or at least not without having to make it to the end once the "normal" way, but that's a different story.

You have always been able to warp to the Mine Shaft with gambling/flower. As for the gates, it is probably a bug that is so small it's not been fixed yet.
