I know this. In addition to the fact that I went through the link commands 
received by the server one by one, there are two more reasons for which I 
think this is a bug. First of all, I actually checked the node names 
(which are "corridor_floor", "room1_door_frame", "hall_door", and 
"room4_door_frame") which correspond to the given node IDs in the 
VML-file, and the links were missing. The second reason is that there are 
geometry nodes which are not linked anywhere, and, on the other hand, 
there are the abovementioned object nodes which do not have a geometry 
node connected to them. So the links are simply missing.
