4 hours of building, gone..

I'm not even mad, love building with the new pack so much. Just a bit bummed out that I spent 4 hours now building and just lost it all. My own fault for not saving lol.

Had placed the new greenhouse windows on curved walls when I started my build, went to change color on them just now and they wouldn't change, couldn't delete them either. Tried deleting the curved room, nothing happened, even a base game door that wasn't on a curved wall but connected to same room, wouldn't change color or be deleted. 
Figured, hey I'll just save the other rooms to my gallery and start over. That's when my game crashed 🙄

So back to square one 😂 Luckily the base house is already a pre built shell I did the other day and saved to my library so just gotta do the interior again. So glad I didn't do outside terrain. Phew.

    I am sorry that you had the issues with your build and then your game crashed 🙁 It is not very good that you lost all the work that you did over the 4 hours.
    I hope that your redoing of the work and build goes well with no issues.

    Thank you for your kind words <3

    I remembered to save frequently now lol, and the issue with the windows wasn't there anymore. Don't know why it glitched first time.

    Wow. You're calmer that I would be. LOL I find myself saving intermittently throughout any build. I've even saved a partial build to my library before. Only thing is I've had issues reclaiming older build after Lovestruck. I have no clue what is going on. But even older builds I try to place will cause the game to freeze up. (I am talking about castles I slaved over that took hours, sometimes days to get right.)

    Normally I save very frequently, but now I was so caught up in my own building bubble lol, that I completely forgot.

    I do think I would have been more upset if I didn't already have the shell saved. When something like this happens I usually get so angry that I can't play the game for a few hours to days lol
