As some of you remember, the keypad snippet has major issues. See this topic for information:

Now I still hadn't solved it up to this point, but a friend recently sent me how to fix it when he had the same problem:
It seems to work, but the problem is that this forces distance and pull to be saved, vastly increasing all area filesizes. If anyone would know a better way of fixing this, that would be nice.
[EDIT] Maybe it doesn't increase it a whole lot. A small area went from 13418b to 13867b. But I still don't think this is a great way to fix this....

Hey I recently had that problem surface on mine, where exit distances
were being set to a wierd number. I figured out the problem, here is
what you need to change:
in build.c
in the fold_area function where exits are saved
in the part that goes like:
if ( xit->distance > 1 || xit->pull )
{
code
}
else
{
shortened code
}
remove the ifcheck, leave the contents under the first ifcheck, remove
the else and the content after the else
any questions log onto my mud and ask em
