Build problem - rooms

Question

I found a room in the game's build section, assuming it has nothing to do with the gallery. I placed the room on an empty lot, also edited the interior slightly. Switched to live mode and sent my sim there to enter the room. Could not enter, figured the lot was residential and not community lot. Changed setting to generic community lot. Went there with sim and can still not get access to the room. Thought I might need to build a house scale, and add the room to the house - did so, but sim can still not access the build.

I never used prebuilt rooms before. Is there something I must do that I'm not aware of? Why can't my sim access the building?

What do you mean by cannot access? What happens?

Is the door blocked or locked? Maybe try deleting it and adding it again. They don't need activated. Did you use terrain editing or a foundation? That can block access without steps. Do you have a picture? Which room?

Weird. Yeah sounds like the lot is bugged.  That's too bad.

The building is just a box - sim can access the lot, but can't get into the build. House works like on a neighboring lot before you knock on their door and gain access. But this is a community lot... Walls down is not working in live mode, but works in build mode. Seems like the room needs to be activated somehow...?

I just plopped down the room at Tail's End in BB. Did nothing to the lot. It's all empty except from that room. After not accessing the room, I built a larger room from scratch, then placed the room inside he bigger, as I thought perhaps a room is not working as a full house. So, the door into the larger room was built by me, but not even this part of the build can be accessed in live mode.

I suppose the lot itself might be bugged. I never used prebuilt rooms before, and I don't really plan to use them a lot, so I'll just go on with my regular play :) Thanks all!
