hi luthien,
i tried that first. i also thought that it would work (maybe from T1 too), but it seems it didn't, or i was not good enough.
i suppose i will have to replay the mission.
regards,
rh

Alternatively, it's the game not forcing the player to hike all the way back to an exit when they're done.
Playing TDS I noticed that when you were forced to go back to an initial position there would be a "short cut". It was usually pretty well done, too - it didn't feel artificial. Well, maybe that final secret door back to the cave from the widow's mansion was a bit convenient :)

In all of Thief 3, 5 of the 10 primary missions made you go back to the start of the level. Of those 5, 3 gave 'short cuts' back. As you said, the shortcuts that were placed made sense.
