Platform: why not recognized for a part of the room. And so on. (Build/Buy Mode)
In this bug report, @SheriGR asked me about the creation of the platform, so I move here for answer, because I think that it is different from the direct content of that bug report. This started wit...
I learned something new from your test results. It takes a lot of time to test. So please take care of yourself. When you're tired, you lose your ability to think. "You also need to give your brain a rest."
It is wonderful that you are able to create such a wonderful home even though there are many functions that cannot be used. I knew there were many inconveniences in playing on a console, but after talking with you here, I realized that it was more inconvenient than I thought. I sincerely hope that one day soon playing Sims 4 on console will be as comfortable as playing Sims 4 on PC.
Lastly. Thank you both for a very enjoyable and meaningful time. Have a nice Sims life.
I downloaded "Aqua Villa" and took a look. That's beautiful! It suits the landscape of Sulani well. First of all, there are packs I don't have, so there are about 50 objects that have been replaced or deleted.
Setting up the Lot, and transparented the roof. This is probably the same one you saw.
And next. The indicated room.
"Remove Ceiling" is displayed. But actually, there is no ceiling there. (following pic)
This kind of thing happens sometimes in my environment. Even though there is no ceiling, it is more often the case that the ceiling is drawn. But the reality is that I don't really care because I can create and delete ceilings using commands. Not being able to do that is a problem for console players. Back to the topic. "Remove Ceiling" is displayed in the same way for rooms without ceilings other than this room. Only one place, the part that is the platform of the washroom, is displayed as "Build Ceiling".
It's wonder. Even though it's a part made on the same platform. Is there a difference in the process of making them? After doing "Remove Ceiling" to make it look like there is no ceiling, the image below shows how the ceiling was created with "Build Ceiling" and the pattern was placed.
That's beautiful. I just put the same pattern on the ceiling as on the floor though.
By the way while working on this, I saw an interesting phenomenon. A sim I control walked into this unoccupied house. It's impossible. I took a video 'cause that be so interesting.
Can you see it properly? For the time being, I tried testing with a normal pre-made vacant house and a vacant house I made myself, but neither of them gave me a speech bubble that I couldn't move. That's so wonder.
@Pick-a-boo_doo You are so sweet with your concern for @simsplayer818 and i! 🙂 You asked if we're getting enough rest, and you said something previously about calming down and not worrying or something similar...
I wanted to put your mind at ease about something. You mentioned English is not your first language. We had exchange students in our home, and I know 'figures of speech' and culturally defined words or phrases can be very confusing. I was a bit worried that since both @simsplayer818 and myself used a such a phrase in this thread, that it may have been confusing.
When we say "I'm Crying Uncle" in English, we don't actually mean we're crying, or that we are upset or sad, like the words seem to mean. When we say "I'm Crying Uncle" it actually means "I'm giving up" or I'm done because I feel I have tried everything and it's not fixed'. In a case like this in testing something, it's basically saying 'well, here is the testing I did... I didn't find a solution, but hopefully the tests will be helpful to EA or in someone else figuring out a workaround or a fix'.
Anyway, you have been very kind and patient, and we both appreciate your thoughtfulness. 🙌
Ahh. I'm sorry that I made you both worry. Yes, I complained a little in my reply to @simsplayer818, but there are many things that I can't quite grasp the meaning of in my native language sentences converted from English by a translation app. "I'm Crying Uncle" These words were translated literally. But the sentences in my native language were strangely funny and made me laugh a little. If I google it, it will give me some idea of what it means. But I can't think of an appropriate scene to use the word. And that applies to my writing as well. There are many things that are not properly expressed when I translate the phrases in my native language into English. This time, I was able to learn quite a lot by interacting with the two of you. thanks so much. For issues, I thought it would be nice to just share ideas here. However, it was difficult to explain it, or to understand what was explained, and it didn't go well. Although thanks for spending time for me. Thank you both for your patience and kindness.
@Pick-a-boo_doo You are so welcome, and it has been my pleasure to chat with you and work on this! 🙂 @simsplayer818 and I have chatted and both think you've been so kind! You have a lovely day!
Absolutely agreed as @SheriGR says @Pick-a-boo_doo you've brought such a cheerful and helpful attitude to a complicated problem. We may only get bits of it resolved but it's been like a little team effort working on it and that's what this forum is all about, it's why I get so much out of it. Your English is amazing too!

@Pick-a-boo_dooAww, you too. You've made my day. I look forward to more discussions with you on other issues with our beloved game!
Edit: after updating to console version 1.79.25 just on the issue of ceilings over platforms and my ceiling controls not working, both of these are now working for me.
