In case it got lost in the shuffle. It's still an issue.
I would suggest you add it to the Github "Issues" tab because forum posts can get lost easily.
That said, to be quite frank with you, expect it to not be addressed/fixed for some time... it seems that the maintainer of this program hasn't updated it in quite some time; probably busy with other (paid? IDK) projects and/or put GZDB on very low priority... pinged him about the possiblity of adding someone to have commit access to the Github repo but got no response. Only other option to keep GZDB moving forward is if someone else forks GZDB-BF. Then we'll have a fork of a fork of a fork. =P (DB2 -> GZDB -> GZDB-BF)

Dinner for 3! One more and it's an average family.

Extracting r3048 will still give a problem with the Visplane Explorer.
Replace the files in Plugin with boris's fixed version of the plugin

Hey. So I'd like to make an announcement (which will probably be duplicated at the first post)
When I started this fork, I was still quite active in the Doom community and even played Zandronum MP
However over these years I lost both free time and interest in Doom (actually I half-left the community overall, only randomly writing code that seems interesting to me, and hanging in the Discord).
I'm looking for someone who's willing to continue (in any way) with improving GZDB(BF).
I think the best way to do this would be adding him/them as a collaborator(s) to my repo, because this way they should also have access to all issues that were already reported, and we won't have to change any URLs.
I'm available to contact either here in PM or in Discord (ZZYZX#1394)

Thank you for all your hard work in keeping GZDB alive, ZZYZX. Hopefully we can find someone to keep the torch burning. Good luck with your other projects!

Hi ZZYZX - thanks so much for carrying GZDBBF this far! I wouldn’t be able to carry a massive amount of development full-time, but I’ve tampered with bits and pieces of it over the last couple of years If that qualifies me, I’d be glad to maintain people’s contributions and keep the project alive.

I've only recently (finally) started using GZDB with any sort of regularity. It's a great editor and I really appreciate the efforts of ZZYZX in keeping it alive, as well as all the other contributors to it both past present and future.

Joined sectors are being unjoined when moved. Is it having to do with these issues?

What version are you using? It works fine for me, also the example map from issue 163 (i.e. it doesn't split the sectors unintentionally).

That broke way back in GZDoom Builder r2638 (2016-05-29)
Rewritten vertex/linedef/sector dragging logic.

OK, I waded through the old thread and apparently this only happens if you don't have the "Merge Dragged Vertices Only" option set. Enable it (either from the "Edit" menu or the toolbar button), and it doesn't split the sectors anymore.

Thanks for the tip, seems to be working ok.

And it's back again. Not sure why, was working with some other sectors fine to start with but then started breaking them again, too. Oh well, I just mass move in DBX for now.
I hope one day we have one rock solid amazing editor for GZD instead of a fork of a fork and a fork of a fork of a fork.
EDIT: Ok, it seems certain combinations of moving lines/vertices and Merge options changes it. It's PITA to remember these things.

Does it spit if you have "Merge Draggen Vertices Only" enabled? It will split in the other two modes - that's how MaxED intended and designed it.
