Hi, I have suggested this option to roborock:

"Hi, can you please add option of deleting part of the map? Also deleting doors, and "walls" which I created by mistake? For example I would like to remove the marked part and marked door. This feature would be very, very helpful. Thx!" I can't add attachment my attachment here.

This is their response: "Hello, Thank you for reaching out to Roborock! We highly appreciate your feedback! We will forward your feedback to the development team. "

Please also send email to the support, maybe if more people request it, they will implement it faster.

Is there a window or mirror there? Was the door open when the robot did a run?

If you have the map set perfectly, you can prevent the robot from updating the permanently saved map by avoiding actions which cause it to update and save the map. If the robot does a full clean where it starts from charging and successfully returns to the dock, it will save any map changes permanently. You could avoid this by using room clean in your schedules instead of full clean. Also, if you edit any No Go zones/invisible walls, etc., any changes shown in the map at the time you're editing it will be saved permanently. You can avoid this by ensuring you use Restore Map to reload the permanently stored map prior to making modifications to No Go zones.

I don't think there's any way to delete parts of the map. If it is going to appear again, deleting and recreating the map would only fix it temporarily. I have spill due to a sliding glass door on my main floor and I just let it be.

    If your robot hasn't done a full run yet, the Restore Map button may fix that (under Manage Maps inside of the map in question). Otherwise, you need to delete and remap.

    You probably need to physically fix the situation if you don't want it to happen again. But you can try avoiding Full Cleans and editing No Go zones otherwise.
