User made terrains compass flipped and mirrored FS25

Farming Simulator 25 (FS25) bug saga continues, are you ready for the next one? Here it comes! ;)
Why is the map upside down?

Can someone explain to me why pretty much every in-game map in computer games is oriented N-S-E-W but Giants chose to have 180 being north and 360 being south?

Is there any logical reasoning for this?
-source Giants forum.

My reply:

What I recall Farming Simulator 25 (FS25) default Riverbend Springs (mapUS for terrain devs) has correct compass bearings: 0 (or 360) is north, 90 is east, 180 is south, 270 is west.

However when I made few testing terrains for FS25 using Giants Editor v10.0.3 and all the default configs otherwise... I noticed the same thing, the whole compass system is flipped and mirrored. When you are heading north it shows 180, when you are heading west it shows 90. This is a bug in Giants Engine v10, without a doubt.

Why does it happen on user made terrains, I have no idea.

I recommend reporting this to Giants feedback tracker (sorry don't have the link at hand right now).
