AD 1.8: Slipgate Conudrum moves you to E1M2. Any way to "fix" it?

So.. basically what the title says. I'm playing through Arcane Dimensions (And having a blast) and I'm at the ending of Slipgate Conudrum (ad_s1m1) but I've found that instead of moving you to the "Lost chapters" map hub (ad_chapters, IIRC) or the original map selection screen, it takes you to the second level of the original quake.

So... do I have any option to "move back" to the chapter selection screen without losing my progress? I know I can just do "map ad_chapters", but the runes are lost (Yeah, impulse 11) and "worse", the "chapter complete" thingies will also be lost.

I've also tried some tools to edit the original file that I found this thread, but using things like bsputil does not work either (I'm using the latest quakespasm spiked).

So, any idea besides loading an older (quite old) save file?

You can actually see it in the BSP itself:
{
"classname" "trigger_changelevel"
"map" "e1m2"
"model" "*54"
}

I have created a small patch which you can just drop into your AD folder if you are using Quakespasm or QSS (it's in PK3 format).

Download ENT patch for AD_S1M1 (7 KB)

All this is basically doing is to change the above code part to
{
"classname" "trigger_changelevel"
"map" "ad_chapters"
"model" "*54"
}

*EDIT*
It seems this is intended behavior, however. Not a bug. You are supposed to go to E2M2 for some reason.

That happened to me earlier tonight and I thought I had accidently loaded an old save and then saved over my actual save. I couldn't tell if that's what I had done or if it was meant to do that. Weird.
