Sims won’t climb ladders or stairs up to platform.
I don’t know why but most of the time my sims won’t climb the stairs or ladders up to the platforms. Only once has a sim managed it and I had to click on the ladder to get her to do it.

I was also having this problem. I figured out it was because I put a fence around the upstairs platform and, although I was able to place the stairs and the fence in its spot seemed to go away, it actually didn’t.
What I did was,
1) I temporarily moved the stairs. The upstairs landing immediately surrounded itself with fence again. That is, the part that seemed to disappear when I placed the fence appeared again.
2) I used the Sledgehammer tool and deleted the parts of the fence that popped back up.
3) I replaced the stairs and directed my sim to use them. Worked perfectly.

@Winter_Violette Your issue sounds like if it may be related to the one in this bug report? What do you think? : https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/WORKAROUND-Open-staircase-cause-routing-failures/td-p/9716427
It would be a good idea, @Amber_Gem1994 , if you would check out that Bug Report. I had assumed that since you were mentioning also the ladders and platforms that it was not the same, but it's true that you should check the details of the report and the posts of others on the report to see if you think it's your issue. Do you have open areas above the affected areas?
I never had any problems with the ladder stairs. I was so happy to see them, but I can't find them anymore. They saved so much room. Anyone know if they were removed from game? I just found them. They were in a different place.
