Problem Title:
Map: Removes logic that is tied to pads locked to Unbonded pins.


Problem Description:
Urgency: Standard

           unbonded pin, map removes the pin and the related
           logic.




Solution 1:

The workaround is to lock the pad to a bonded pin and run through par. Then edit the pcf to loc the pad to the correct unbonded pin. Then continue running the tool.

For example the .pcf will look like this when you open it.
comp "comp_name" LOCATE = SITE "P12" LEVEL1

You need to change it to:

comp "comp_name" LOCATE = SITE "UNB11" LEVEL1
