Can we have a auto-roof in The Sims 4?

When i try to build a roof it's difficult to place them without messing it up
there were a few times i deleted the whole floor instead or the actual roof is a mess
because it will look all over the place without knowing how to edit them

The Sims 2 had an auto-roof in build mode and i'd like to see them in The Sims 4

On this one you can delete a roof

You can save the roof where the mouse is at

Don't mind some Dutch words and this bad quality because i made this from my mobile but i didn't knew how to do it otherwise but i'd like to see these options in The Sims 4

By the way: things are only getting better in basegame when it comes to options such as some more walls and furnitures options, more skintones with sliders, play as a ghost sim right after it died, an occult switch without starting it over but the roof option always bothered me from the very beginning, it frustrated me when i found out you can't do an auto-roof so i'd love to see them in The Sims 4 (i always mess things up with the roof)

    I agree an auto roof option would be great! It gets a little frustrating when trying to put a roof on an oddly shaped building an auto roof could really fix this.

  • I thought we already had this option with a flat roof auto roof?  Anyways yeah I agree. 🙂

    You're not the only one here, i'm not so good at building either, especially roofs

    They had this in Sims 3 and for the most part it worked well but some were just insane lol. I like the ability to make our own roofs as I find it way more flexible but it takes practice. I find the circle or octogonal roofs impossible to match up though.

    Omg i didn't knew even The Sims 3 had them (i don't use The Sims 3, i did heard stuff but i didn't knew an auto-roof was a thing in The Sims 3)

    And i get you, some things were just insane in The Sims 2 too but it works perfectly for the most parts haha😊😊

    I'd like to see an auto-roof in The Sims 4😉😉👍

    You are right about Sims 3 roofs and auto roofs!  I never liked it.

    I personally Don't want auto roofs because it screws up the whole build.

    Maybe I am misremembering, but wasn't the auto roof optional? You could turn it off if you wanted to make your own. It has been a long time so I could be mistaken. Even so, they could put in an auto roof and make it optional. Off by default. It would give them a 100% win across the board :)

    i didn't thought of that, yes it should definitely be optional👍

    some people who doesn't want these can toggle that option off while some people can do auto-roof who aren't good at making roofs with that option turned on with the toggle option👍

    it will be a win-win for both parties😉😉
