Using No Battlebacks and not Seeing a Door in Background during Battle

I love that with MV, use can opt to have no battlebacks, and use the current map as your background. It will show whatever is there, parallax or regular mapping. One thing that I did notice is that is treats an evented door as a black square, or whatever you chose you the graphic where door is, but will not show the door used in the event. I used the square black mapping option for 'behind' the door, and that is what I see during battling. Is the door not seen during the battle scene do to it being part of an event?

Are no other events drawn or is it just doors?
For this particular map, no other events are drawn. There are some 'invisible' battle-based events, but no other drawn event.

UPDATE: On a different map, I had events with a door and chimney smoke. Both there pre-battle, but both absent during battle event.

So the game does not take a snapshot of the background like it does when you press menu, in stead it just renders the map. And since events are not part of the map (only a part of the map data) it is not drawn.

This is a gross oversight and i will make a patch for it when i get some time to do so. please continue development and i will fix it for everybody.

PS: show me how you disable battle background.

I noticed, the battle battleground, just did not show up, if one was not assigned, and it used the nearest map instead. I will be making a new game shortly, and see if it does the same feature.

UPDATE: I created a new mini-game, using the regular grass and a brick building (non-parallax) outdoor map, with an evented door. Did a mock battle, and had same result, no door. The info you may be interested is that I did nothing regarding the battleback, but not assigning one, and it gives me a battleback of current map.
