@SheriGR I managed to get some images on my tablet of my testing today. They were a bit dark so I highlighted the platform with a shiny floor covering and some spotlights. I tested on flat ground first with a raised central platform, a raised wall side platform and a sunken central platform (the octagonal one as it wasn't a clear image so I made it a distinctive shape). Success! They all got their ceilings where they didn't before. Then I tested it on a raised deck and they still got ceilings. When the wall was removed by the platform, it still had a ceiling but no wall because of the separate room problem. I'll add some of these images on that thread too.
I tested the shapes I had problems with as well such as the Aqua Villa lot we discussed on the discussion thread where there was a large U shaped platform with huge missing ceiling, that also worked.
I also noticed that when I deleted the room around the platform, where the platform is classed as a separate room it was left standing and still had a little floating ceiling. So it looks like it's working.
Thank you for posting this bug report @simsplayer818 ! I also see missing holes over my platforms (unless I fill them via a workaround, as you mentioned). It's very frustrating, and it even happens in a room that has a middle height wall and a platform at the default height (no height increase), so there's no chance it's from a lack of sufficient head-clearance for a Sim over the platform (if they were to stand on it). This is from an experiment where I made the platform after the room (left - I shrunk the platform down to one tile after making it), or when I drew a room around the original shrunken platform via the wall tool (right).
I find this to be very frustrating (holes in the roof) and would love to see it corrected. Thank you, again, for posting this report! 🙌
Edit: I just went in and tested further. I found that if I made the platform in middle of the room, the ceiling did not disappear. However, if I made the platform outside the room (in this case on the ground), then used the move tool to place the platform inside the room, then the ceiling did disappear.
I tested further on the disappearing ceiling and found that the method of producing the disappearing ceiling mentioned above did not work when I moved the platform from the yard to inside a room in the main house on the lot -which has a raised foundation. It only happened when It moved the platform from the yard with the move tool to a different building on the lot that has one level only anddoes not have a raised foundation. So... if that detail is of any help, there it is.
Note... @simsplayer818 So weird... When I just did a test using a 4 foundation levels up room for the other thread by @Pick-a-boo_doo, then making platform on the ground and moving it into the center of that room, it did delete the ceiling! Crazy, as it did not delete the ceiling when I placed the platform that way into the house I have on the lot (which is 3 foundation levels raised home - and I tried on the first floor and the second floor, in case the floor level mattered) when I added it on the second floor or first floor finished rooms... sort of. If I placed the platform in the first floor room so two tiles of the platform had a second story room above it and two only had a roof above it, the two tiles with only the roof above them did delete. Well, I'm crying uncle. Not sure if any of that will be of any use, but there it is. 🙌
@SheriGR It can also leave gaps in the roof edges as well until it's filled in. I can see daylight through the roof until I fix it. I was baffled at first but then I realised it was the lack of a portion of ceiling that was causing the uneven roof edge.
