Can‘t place ladders on platform in the ocean

I cannot place ladders on the platform in the ocean. It won‘t snap to the platform. Tried different heights but it didn‘t help. Does anybody have the same issue?

  • Are you trying to place ladders from the stairs category in build mode or the pier ladder with the boat docking from island living? Just so I know 😁

  • Hi, are you using the platform tool in build mode for your platform? Are you trying to attach the ladder to a room above with a different floor level? Have you raised the floor level of the platform? 

    Sorry for all the questions 😆 I recently build a stilt foundation house in the ocean with lots of piers and had platform and stair troubles myself! Had the red "can't place in ocean" message pop up so so many times.

    Thanks for your answer. Yes, I tried raising the floorlevel of the platform. I always get  „Can’t place in ocean“.

    That's good to hear, hope you can complete your build now 😃 also a tip I found helpful for platforms and piers if you have trouble with them is to use the full room tool then delete the walls and ceilings and raising its floor level to make a platform instead of using the build mode platform tool. I don't know why but it just works better lol
