Brief summary of issue / Description of requested feature:

connectExitStub(fromID, direction or toID[, optional direction])

In the above, you can see that connectExitStub() is supposed to accept a room id as the 2nd parameter and optionally a direction as the third.

In my testing the function connectExitStub() only works if the 2nd parameter is a direction number such as:

connectExitStub(fromID, directionNum)

For me this means using connectExitStub() will not work to connect the exits between rooms in different Areas.

I had planned to use the more explicit version such as:

connectExitStub(fromID, toID, directionNum)

But after testing it does not work.

Steps to reproduce the issue / Reasons for adding feature:

While mapping an area try using connectExitStub(fromID, toID, directionNum)

Error output / Expected result of feature

If you look in the debug console, you will see that it throws an error:

LUA: ERROR running script onRoom (onRoom)
Error: connectExitStub: Need a direction number (or room id) as 2nd argument
