Need help! Can't knock on door.
So I build this lot. https://www.ea.com/games/the-sims/the-sims-4/pc/gallery/76B9411092DE11EA818857D40D659A5C And have a custom Sim living in there. He certainly comes outside and we had conversati...

@Manachinov Is there a front door at all ? Can you set that particular door as front door ? If not, then it's not recognized as such and there's probably some other door that's the front door
- @crinrict While I can set a front door as a Sim living there. I never had the problem designating the door just for a lot I don't intend to use. And there are two doors in fact. It only does come as a problem that I might not be able to designate the door. Just from a test play the door on the front of the lot downstairs is the only used door as the front door by the sim.
- @Manachinov Are you sure there’s somebody home when you try to visit?
- @crinrict @suzushka Yes. I am sure some one is always home. When I visit. Even if I come at a very late time it shouldn't matter. I have doors on the outside walls. So does the Sim living there. He comes in and out. I defunked a lot of ideas right now. I had some time to test. There is a stairs case that is missing from the small foundation rise. Removed the snack stand outside. I found a problem in a first floor fireplace wall that allowed a carpenter frieze to be built inside the house. I am old fashioned I put wall rooms behind the fireplaces. I think it's a problem when I removed the ceiling in that section. Still it doesn't work. I worked out all the bugs I could think of. It was a very quick build. Nothing worked for me. Clueless.
- @Manachinov If you want to confirm it’s a problem with your build, try this. On the same lot but off to the side, build a tiny 3 x 3 structure as simply as possible, add a door, click on the door and set it as your front door. you’re basically designating this as your main residence and the rest of your build as ‘decoration’. then try your test visit. be sure to knock on your new front door (your 3x3 structure). if you’re able to visit as you expect to be able to with this configuration, at least you will know the problem is definitely build related.
@suzushka i seen answers like this before. it does seem like a logical solution. But, after all that I will not be able to figure out how to visit this lot anyway. I will try that as useless as it may be.

Besides. Like I said. I can live in this lot. It's the visits that are a problem.
Well. Okey. I replaced the Summer Swelter Stall with a building with a door and two windows. A TV and an armchair. It does work. But, How do I now Visit this Lot without a small building like that. Because it's clearly not a problem of how I visit this lot. But, the build it self obviously. I can't believe I have to explain that I in fact visit a lot according to the rules.
Well, after much complaining and not accepting change. I figured out the problem with this lot is the Roller Skating Rink. The problem is the connecting fences that I put up to support the entrance to the property through the Rink entrance only. When the fences are removed I get the ability to knock on the doors and the Sims actually walk around the Rink to go down the stairs to the house. It does suck. Because it messes with the entire lot design. I can only make one conclusion is that this lot is only good to keep the Grim Reaper out and my Sims in.
