0008303: Ramp stairwells don't allow access through top floor.
In the keep where the save starts out, as well as at a couple of dark pits in the area, the ramp stairwells appear to be broken concerning the tops of towers.

Firstly, in order to get on the top of the tower via the stairwell, you for some reason need to press Alt+direction, instead of just the direction. Secondly, when you are on the top, there's no way to go through the hatch back down, which means you need to climb down if you can, or otherwise jump off.

Save: http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=9713 [^]
1. Go up the ramps in one of the towers in the keep, until you find you don't go up (which will happen on the floor below the top).

2. Press Alt+direction to get to the top of the tower.

3. Notice how not even Alt+direction will let you back down.

4. Climb down, or jump off.
No tags attached.

In 40.13, i got the same problem when climbing in a near empty goblin tower, the last floor can -only- be accessed by ALT+Direction and sometime going down require only Direction, sometime require ALT+Direction, and sometime does not work, and i need to move away , come back and try ALT+Direction again.
Very impractical if it's not a bug

As someone mentionned in the bay12 board that he didn't had to ALT+direction to reach the top of a tower, i guess that's probably a bug, here is a 40.13 save , the last step to the stair is to your immediate right, but just pressing right will not work, you have to press ALT+right
