Above view Word Office2014 (bad), below view Notepad (correct)
I understand there is a legacy problem here, but I don't understand how to overcome it. I understand Word has proper OpenType compatibility since 2010, but the font's properties are completely ignored in the 2014. Is there something I can do to make it work? Please help
So, the omnious floating dot ('mark') should normally be placed at the apex of the triangle, but when this other symbol, base character 'N' (that transforms contextually into a diacritic, being this version of the glyph the one with the anchor) is present, a 'mkmk' should apply and move the dot to the base of the triangle.
Now, the expected writing order implies that the 'N' shouldn't necessarily be the last diacritic added, just be present, while normally other bases-converted-to-diacritics could appear in the middle. I understood that IgnoreMarks flags could make the 'mkmk' just ignore them and search for the expected anchor present at 'N', but apparently I'm not fully understanding how that flag works. I tried creating a Mark Class (or a Mark Set) which, according to the documents, should contain the marks that the look up SHOULD CARE ABOUT, and leaving out the ones that should be ignored. That didn't work. I thought maybe I understood it wrong and it was the other way around, but that didn't work either. As soon as I activate the IgnoreMarks flag, the anchor becomes completely ignored. In the picture it's deactivated, and whenever I activate it, no matter if I even specify and Mark Class/Set, and even if it's typed right after 'N' it simply doesn't work and defaults to its normal position.
Am I understanding Mark Class/Set wrong, or maybe IgnoreMarks flags? All base-converted-to-diacritics attach at the same anchor class point. Should the ones to be ignored be attached through another anchor class?? Please help!
The image is just for exemplification.
I'm working on a project that requires contextual chaining substitution and it would be ideal if there was a way to anchor not only diacritics when written after, but changing the marks/letters before so they can become mark-like and attach the from left? I know there is a checkbox that says RtL on the contextual shaping side, but I'm afraid it would f-up the whole font. I'm working with characters Word already has problems with and I have to add the Force LtR control point (U+202D) always before begining to write with it.

I've recently encountered a post on Twitter asking about what could the bottom line on the entrance of this temple be. I realized it says the same as the disc (Tabro-Geybro-Humi-Jumi, Nyezi-Nom, Nomo:), but I still wonder if it's on a script used locally that we don't know about. Someone pointed out it is a Hrusso/Aka temple, but any confirmation would be welcome, thanks in advance!
Also, looking at the photos shared by people, looks like a wonderful place, and the river next to it is also a wonderful view!
