Description

When an optionalspace is generated using the Space.fromFloorPrint method, and following a space is generated from the optionalspace, the surfaces of this space are in arbitrary ordering. wouldn't it make more sense if the six surfaces that bound that space are ordered by floor + 4 walls in the order that the points are read into the Point3dVector + the ceiling?

Research direction

Start by tracing Space.fromFloorPrint and the generation of a following space from an OptionalSpace, then inspect how the resulting surfaces are ordered relative to the Point3dVector input. Done means the six bounding surfaces have deterministic floor, wall, and ceiling ordering matching the requested convention.
