APIAny_NeigToCoordID with unknown error [SOLVED]

I called the ACAPI_Goodies function and it returned 0xffffe4a5.

All I can add is that we use the function successfully and haven't seen that error code before.

This is what I've done:

1. Create a wall 9000m high (storey height is 3000m); home storey is second floor.
2. Create 3 windows on the created wall; sill is anchored to storey ('Sill to Story X'); sill height is 200m.

When the API_Goodies(APIAny_NeigToCoordID) is called, two of these three windows returns 0x0ffffe4a5 on both APINeig_WindHole[0] and APINeig_WindHole[1].

Found a solution to this problem. It seems that when getting the coordinate of a neig of an element, you should be on the same storey of that element. What I did was when I encounter this error (0xffffe4a5), I have to change the current storey to the element's storey (using ACAPI_Environment(APIEnv_ChangeStorySettingsID)).

BTW, this error is GSErrCodes::Error = -7003 fond in Definitions.hpp.
