A roof piece broke my entire game

Hi I just started playing the Sims 4 and I had created 4 charecters and started my first game. I spent about 2 hours on a house and only used a money cheat to get some more money. I had gotten pretty far into my build and tried adding a roof paice, and it wouldn't let me resize it for some reason, so I thought it was just a little bug and tried saving the game so I could re-launch it, but it also wouldn't let me save the game, it was stuck on the saving screen, so I tried closing the game but it wouldnt let me it was lagging out my computer so much task manager couldn't even open, so I had to restart my computer and when I resumed my game my house was gone. this was my first experience with this game, and I dont understand how a small roof piece broke the game to the point I needed to restart my computer. My question is; Is this game aways this buggy?

    I’m so sorry. Welcome to The Sims! It is very buggy. Usually it takes more to crash. But save your game more regularly. :( Like after every major change. 

  • Sad, but true.  Are you playing on a unit that complies with the recommendations for the game?

    Sounds about right. I usually save after every major change. If I finished my sims in cas, I move them to a lot and save the game. And when I build, I save after every room I finish decorating. I’ve lost a lot of progress over the years, so I save all the time pretty much. Also, if you did a lot progress in game and you save. Just save one more time. Once when I saved, after a few more minutes of me building my game crushed but the save didn’t actually save. Maybe it was just me, maybe it doesn’t happen anymore, but it definitely did once.
