Re: [OPEN] Round Rooms Not Functional

I'm experiencing the same issue. I decided to build a resort-style big house for my 7 sims, and they get one round bungalow each. So far, only one bungalow is fully furnished and functional. The rest have the bare minimum, and in at least two of them, they cannot access the bathroom that takes up one quarter of the circle. One can't even use a bed that's in the room. I keep trying to move things around, even copying the functional one, and it still doesn't work. I can't work out what, but it's something to do with the "diamond" that appears in the middle when you hover over the floor. 

I wish I'd never tried round walls. I used them to design a Sulani ocean houseboat and the rear of the boat was a rounded deck, the front pointed. I placed a room on top of the deck and added rounded walls back and front. I had to set them to medium height because it kept saying things were intersecting with the roof when there was no roof.

Eventually I decided to place a roof section at the back for a curved wall instead of a rounded wall. I deleted the rounded wall but it left a shadow as if it was still there. I still got error messages saying I had a rounded room but I didn't. I'd never added a rounded room. When the walls are on cutaway, there is still a round shadow where the old round wall used to be. You can't fully delete them when placed on a deck it seems.

I wish I'd never touched them. It took me 2 to 3 hours to delete one wall and reshape my boat. They are unforgivably buggy and temperamental. It's constant error messages, even after deletion.

I've attached 2 images to show the shadows left in build mode and a completed image so you can see it has no round rooms but it says it does. I was really disappointed because this was going to be a gallery submission and those round "ghost walls" it's left with, well they just cause such problems when making any changes to it. It ended up being such a buggy build I don't feel that I can upload it to the gallery for anyone else to wrestle with it.

Live mode is luckily unaffected.

Edit: Just to add I'm on Xbox Series S.

Yes mine is exactly the same, I've spent ages building a castle with turrets, only to find everything in the round rooms, no matter where its placed, is totally un-usable

@NutsyTabz Interestingly, I’ve also recently built a castle with round turrets - but except for one more minor routing error (my sim can’t seem to find their way back out of this one bathroom unless I click “go here” on the floor just past the toilet before asking them to go anywhere else) it all seemed to work. I wonder what triggers the error? Are your towers connected to a square room, or freestanding? If connected, which did you build first? I did have some difficulty initially joining my curtain wall to my towers, and got some odd duplications that I then deleted. I thought I was just bad at building. 🤷🏼‍♀️

@TheSimsDirect Hi all, please find below link to a gameplay clip involving round room, non-functioning items - in the clip i try to interact with objects not placed while in MOO mode, and no matter what I click on, everything in that room is totally unusable

@NutsyTabz Oh that looks really cool. My towers are fully circular, with just the outdoor courtyard joined for the most part. In fact, I had such a problem with the second level flooring, the one tower I'd planned to join to a square indoor room actually isn't - I've got a hole making it outdoor right around the base of the tower.

Had to leave hole in floor:

Can you imagine if, when they introduced pools to the game, sims couldn't actually swim in them?

That's basically what's happening with round rooms and they STILL haven't fixed it.

Another year of this bug not getting fixed. They added a whole new build feature to the game, learned it was broken and... just didn't fix it. It's amazing, really.
