  • Resizing objects in Build Mode is possible again. While holding the object you want to resize, press and hold L2+R2 (PlayStation) / LT+RT (Xbox) then press Left or Right on the D-Pad to adjust the size and place your giant, or tiny, object into the Lot when ready


    Fixed in Patch 1.76

    I’ve learned that if you place the item and resize it after placing the object it works. Hope this helped!

    Please describe the patch or change you made. 31st January 2023 patch broke the game

    Everytime i want to resize an item the search bar comes up and doesnt allow me to resize. Anything associated with pressing LT brings up the search bar and blocks what im trying to do

    I've got this too on Xbox Series S, along with the other associated issues already reported and given in feedback. It's really problematic. I have to place the item first, then resize it. But if there's no room to place it temporarily then it's incredibly annoying.

    This doesn't work on Xbox one as the left trigger opens search every time.
