I managed my sims to use the pool at last 🙂 Thanks to @CGrant56 I got inspired by the build a room idea. However, I didn't flatten or change the terrain level. I simply created a room around the pool areas with the wall tool and then bulldozed the pools. I build the pools once again and deleted the walls. Now my sims can swim 🙂
I still can't change or add walls in the house, but I don't mind. I really liked this house and it is ok not to change it inside 🙂
I was so upset when my sim could not use the pool that I had built on a higher elevation, espec when I saw people saying they
had to flatten the entire lot to get it to work. I worked really hard on making a mountain home on a higher elevation, re-creating
one that I loved in Avakin Life because of it's amazing soothing and beautiful environment.
Before I even read your comment
about building a room, I decided to check to see if I made a room around the pool if it would work. I did this I think because I
am so used to losing floor squares and having to build rooms around rooms to get them back. A weird dynamic but it is what
it is. So I built walls around my pool, put a door in and had my sim test it. It works. No having to move and rebuild the pool or
anything. So just put walls around it, so that the floor squares come up underneath it to give it "support" and then remove the
walls should work for anyone having this issue.
Thank God too bc I was really upset to think that this property I worked so hard and long on to get right (and had to redo
pathing on the driveway that goes down to the main ground level bc I forgot to save it apparently) and having to flatten
it was just not going to fly.
Thank you so much for your comments ! Although I didn't see it before I tried the room, I very well could have and I am
sure it will help someone else who is struggling with this issue. 🙂 Happy Simming!
