Re: [BY DESIGN] Counters not lining up while placed against a wall
@EeveeTinn Thanks for the extra clarification! I did some testing and now I believe this is a design flaw that I never noticed before, since I normally don't create an L shape for counters into a room. I tested several different counters (Country Kitchen and a couple base game ones) and noticed the counters change when they touch a wall. They shrink just a bit and some counters add a backsplash.
The bumpout occurs even when using the auto placement feature.
If counters aren't touching a wall, they don't change. It's the same for all counter shapes, not just the end pieces, like this regular "tile" piece.
It would be better if the counters were able to match the shape of the existing counters, especially when auto placement is turned on. Hopefully the Sims team sees this and investigates the possibility.
In the meantime, I was able to use the Alt key (free placement) feature to get the configuration you're looking for. It can be a bit tedious, but perhaps it's worth the effort if you want your counters to line up with each other?
