[OPEN] Flooring Being Placed Over Pool

So when I go to lay flooring around my pool it fills over the whole pool and does not automatically disappear..

I have no idea why this is happening, but this game just continues to make me sad.

I HAVE NO MODS OR CC INSTALLED

    @knewt93 Does this happen when you have placed the pool on a deck and deleted the deck flooring?  We were just discussing this issue here.  There are a couple of workarounds: 1) don't delete the deck flooring, just tile over it or 2) Delete one tile of the deck fence and then pull the remaining fence back into its place.  Either way will prevent the issue.

    Yes I believe it is something like that

    Well, it's new to me anyway - had never heard of it before that post on the forums.  Have no idea when it actually cropped up in the game though.

    i hope this may narrow the field a bit  i think this may have  happened with the new pack I am updated patch wise but do not have the Spa day pack yet ,and am able to build pools with decking with foundations etc place the flooring  and it disappears/auto adjusts  where it should i can place the flooring first too and then place the pool and the tiles disappears/auto adjusts

    edit to add  have now  run into this issue

    i wonder if it is because the pool is an enclosed body of water that the game "thinks* the walls are a room therefore the floor tiles are been placed as if a full floor is there

    late edit here i omittid this happened after i installed the new pack

    Today I had flooring placed around my pool and it placed the way it is supposed to. BUT  I decided I wanted a fence around the property. When I placed the fence it installed a flooring with the fence. When I deleted that subfloor, my original pattern was still there but now it was overlapping the pool. And it won't let me delete the squares it says there is nothing to delete! I have tried repairing my game and it did not help. I have never had this issue before and do not have mods or cc.

    Origin just updated my game today. I don't know if I have a bug or not, but when I place flooring around my pool, it disappears and any other flooring I placed previous. When placing it, the ground disappears for a second too. It is quite frustrating, and I don't know how to fix this. :P
