Some room warps in editor won't change

Load pretty much any level into the editor and try to change the warp direction of room (1,1) and it won't let you. "ERROR: Cannot have both warp types". Some levels also won't let you change the warp direction of (1,2), but some will. The weird thing is that in the level "Soul Searching" I also tried this, and it said the same thing in (1,2) but the room is already set to warp horizontally. Is this a glitch, and if so, how was the room set to warp horizontally if the editor won't let you do it?

The levels I tried were 333333 (easy mode), Soul Searching, Line Wrap, Quantum Tunnel. I had the glitch in (1,1) in all four of those, and in (1,2) in two or three of them. There were no warp lines in the rooms in question so it doesn't make sense!

Maybe the warp from 1,1 to 5,1 and 1,5 (in a 5,5 level, so the warp from one edge of the map to another) is a hardcoded warping direction that can't be removed. But you're saying it doesn't happen to all levels?

The levels I tried all had it happen in 1,1 but not all in 1,2. It's weird; try it yourself - load a few levels in the editor and try to change warp directions with W.

It's strange that you can change the warp direction of 1,1 if you don't load a level, but you can't change it if you load a level. ??? Does anyone know why that happens?

I tried reproducing this with the levels I am creating. One of them didn't allow me to change the warp direction of (1,1), but allowed in every surrounding room (including (1,2)); and in the other level... it  allowed me to change the warp direction of both (1,1) and (1,2) (as well as in the surrounding rooms like (2,1))! Perhaps the size affects this? The 1st level is 20x20, I don't want to mention the size of the other level due to its secrets, but it isn't a square (it's a rectangle).
