Roof coming inside

I'm having issues with editing the inside of my house. I have put the roof on and the stairs are inside, but when I try to make a balcony around the stairs inside the house, the game seems to think it's outside and the roof comes into the house. I've tried everything but anytime I remove any floor tiles around the stairs to make it an open balcony, the roof comes in each tile I remove! Is there any way around this??

  • @MiniCoops1990 Can you please post a screenshot(s) that would clarify the situation so that I can reproduce it in my game and advise? Or you could upload the build to the gallery with a name like 'roof test' and let me know if your gallery name is different here so I can find it ant test it in my game. Or better yet you could just add the link to it in the gallery here in a post.

    In here mean time there are a couple of helpful posts on roofing:

    I look forward to your response and getting this additional information/screenshots, or the gallery link to investigate specifics on this. Thanks!

  • Thank you for your quick response. I have uploaded it to the gallery under the name ROOF TEST - NOT WORKING. Hashtag #minicoops1990

    The room at the top of the stairs I'm trying to delete floor tiles and make it look like the room outside, but when I do the roof comes in.

    Thank you

    @MiniCoops1990 Unfortunately when I search "ROOF TEST - NOT WORKING" I don't get anything. For the hashtag  #minicoops1990 I get other items of yours, but not this one.

    @MiniCoops1990 I have made you a video, as I found what you did... while trying to make an opening around the stairway by my normal techniques I was also having a point where the roofing on all sides would stop clipping and would come into the stairwell room - either the eaves or on two sides part of the roof and it's wall also.

    So... I in my video you will see the way that I made the roofing more custom-formatted to the areas it was covering (around the stairwell room). I then went through the method that I use to create an open stairwell. 

    Video of process: https://youtu.be/Amw-z0RTD1I

    Please let us know how it goes, and if this is what you were looking to do. If I misunderstood your issue, please let me know that also. Thank you!

  • @SheriGR  That is absolutely amazing, thank you so so much for your help! It's exactly what I was after.

    Thank you very much, I really appreciate it. You will definitely be credited when I upload the finished product 😁
