Not clear to me what the issue is. Please look at result from the following source. First two 5-bar sets are exactly what you posted and I don't see anything inconsistent with the coding. In the last set I gave a dot to the first note under the tie and again I don't see a problem.
Also, you should use postscript slurs, activated by Ap, to get real ties. ========================= 2 2 3 4 9 8 0 0 0 5 20 0 bt .\ Ap g23d fd ed d4.c b c d2 / g44x3n fs g bx3n a b dx3n c d \pt{m}\ f4 a-4x3n g a cx3n b c ex3n d e \pt{n}\ g4 b-x3n a b dx3n c d f4 fx3n g d r2d / % Unfortunately this breaks when I try to tie one of these fake-dotted % crotchets to the following quaver, i.e. this causes broken output: g23d fd ed d4.c b c d2 / g44x3n fs g bx3n a b dx3n c d \pt{m}\ f4 a-4x3n g a cx3n b c ex3n d e \pt{n}\ g4 b-x3n a b dx3n c d f4 t fx3n t g d r2d / % Not clear what the question or problem is.
