map mechanic idea: mountain passes

[paradoxharbinger]

when using the map editor they look one way, but when you try to play on it, there's no link period. you can reproduce it by linking some provinces in the map editor, choose one of them and click 'removed province'. sometimes it will make what look like one way links. i had never actually tested to see whether it worked or not in game until last night.

That's a shame. That would have been awesome.

yeah, one way links would allow for all sorts of hijinks. i don't know how the links are implemented in the game, but all of the schemes i can think of could easily be modified to enable one-way linking, so that #neighbor x y != #neighbor y x with a new command #enableoneway so that old maps would not suddenly become broken.
