    Raising terrain and then undoing that height adjustment or placing a platform no longer prevents objects from being placed in that area.

    Fixed in Patch 1.99.264/1.78

    please create a new thread if you're still experiencing this issue,

@Jasperaus08 

When you lower the platform have you readjusted the floor so it is one room again? I had a platform in this room then lowered it down to ground level but the room still exists in two portions:

I grabbed the other part of the room and pulled it to the left to create one room again:

Placement is all fine again. Also, you can place objects with MOO enabled no problem.

    @Bluebellflora 

    i build kinda weirdly so there were no rooms when i discovered the issue i placed down the platform to see how it worked before starting my build and then deleted it once i got a feel for how it worked and thought about how to add it to my builds. i didn't think to try with moveobjects i will try that when i do play again

    EDIT: bb.moveobjects on did work in allowing me to place in the area though ive had an issue for a while when using moveobjects where stuff in my house that i have placed with moveobjects will automatically go into my house inventory at random, its not super often but can be quite annoying when you've placed it just right and the item decides it doesn't want to cooperate 😃
