you did not waste my time 🙂  and don't feel stupid or  silly please it happens even to the best of us 🙂

I have tried everything to place the vampire lounge and I can't figure it out

I have tried everything to place the vampire lounge can someone please help me

@kellyus1985  Can you review precisely what you've tried so far?  The OP was trying to place the lounge on a lot that was too small to accommodate it.  If that is not the case, you could try rumbutter's suggestion of placing a few items on the lot and then bulldozing it.   That would eliminate any seeds or other objects on the ground that might be blocking the placement of the building you want.  Also, make sure that the lot is zoned community rather than residential.

I did all that and when I bulldoze it takes away the whole lot

@kellyus1985  That's why you need to put something on the lot first, like a random wall or a few pieces of furniture.  The first bulldoze command should just completely clear the lot of whatever is on it, leaving a blank space.  If the lot is already empty, or the game thinks it is, a bulldoze will delete the lot entirely.

But the other question remains:  Have you checked to make sure that the building you want to place will fit on the lot you've chosen for it?  And that the empty lot is zoned for community buildings?

I just did it and I'm a lot sized 50x25 and the vampire lounge is 40x55 I can't find another size 

@kellyus1985  The lot you want to use is too small, but perhaps there's a vacant residential lot you can use instead?  Or a community lot that you don't need in your game?  I believe there's a larger lot footprint that you can manually place in Edit Town, although it might be hard to find space for it.  Here's a visual, in case it helps:

I tried the 50x50 one also and that didn't work either

@kellyus1985  Yes, because one side of the lounge you want to place is 55 squares long, so it wouldn't fit.

If you don't have any placeable grids larger than 50x50, you'll need to bulldoze an existing lot.  Or, if you'd prefer, you can build or refurbish a different gathering spot that fits into a smaller footprint.  You could check the exchange for player-built lots as well.  But be careful—some of them come with hidden custom content that can infect and corrupt your game.  If you're not familiar with the process of cleaning a download, it's probably best to stick with your own lots.

When you want to convert a different type of community lot into a vampire hangout, it's easy.  Just go to Edit Town, click on the map tag, and select the option you want from the dropdown menu.

I figured it out thanks
