    @aodoherty  Try placing an item in build mode, then looking from Map View again.  Sometimes that's all it takes to rebuild the game's zoomed out image of the house.  If that doesn't work, quit and delete the five cache files in your user data folder, then reload and look again, and place another object in Build mode if necessary.  For reference, the cache files are:

    • scriptCache.package
    • simCompositorCache.package
    • socialCache.package
