[FIXED] Cut off stair railing at half walls on even fundament height

Hi @LadyFu83 just checking, when removing all cc & mods, did you also delete the localthumbcache file(?), and repair the game, as often times problems can linger...

@Sashas0nic 

Hello! I tested it with mods/CC and without them.

I deleted all cache files everytime I start a game.

The only thing I didn't try was to repair the game. I repaired it now but this didn't work either.

Here's another notice: I got a message on the German forum that this bug exists for a longer time, maybe with the release of City Living. I never noticed it but it's still there.

Ok @LadyFu83 I'm not an 'official' bug hunter per se, just stopping by briefly to add a bit of troubleshooter info in the interim that may help, I'm sure someone aware of most bugs/issues will have more information as soon as is viable then, as have not heard of it before myself (and it's not occurring in my game).

I did however, find a similar thread here, which may help in the meantime.

I also remember having this bug for a while but for me it doesn't happen all the time. I can build a few houses and I'll never see it and then one day that damned gap is gonna appear out of nowhere. 

The railings doesn't snap to the half wall, the railing-post/newel, that is automatically placed at the top stair-step, is exchanged for the half wall (presumably because they compete about the space). One workaround is to elongate the room, and use that part to place the half walls on, then the railings snap to them.

Railings don't snap:

Railings does snap:

EDIT: Was able to get them to snap, but don't know why. What I did was exit the game; delete caches; open the save; build up to four levels with stairs, which snapped to the half walls; erase all the levels and try again on the ground level:



I tried to replicate the same steps in another new folder, but was unsuccessful in getting them to snap there.

EDIT 2: It is, like said, very random. I found a workaround that worked for me: if the railings don't snap to the half walls at the first try, I dragged the house foundation down below ground level (erasing the stair at ground level); and dragged the foundation up again (a couple of times); and then put back the stairs and the railings - which snapped to the half walls. Sometimes I had to  redo that routine a couple of times before I got the railings to snap. Tried in a new folder every time.
