Cant built build rocketship?!

Ive placed a steampunk flyamajig starter kit on my sims property but I went I click on it I dont get the option to build. Ive tried in different households, different worlds and Ive exited the game but nothing happens when I click on the starter kit. Anyone else have this problem? I very rarely play with the rocketship, maybe I'm missing something?

    It's a known bug that is caused by Cottage Living. A skilled simmer has explained it at Answers HQ. When you start to build a rocket, the game checks if you can build for free at a festival or have to pay on a private lot. Unfortunately they forgot to put the COL markets on the festival check list.

    Yeah, You are not alone in that.
    I was looking forward to a group rocket ship building project along with other science activities at my Uni dorm.
    Had to nix the ship.

    I am currently using this mod until it is fixed

    EA needs to hire that modder, stat! A marvelous collection of bug fixes on that site.
  • Hah A bunch of sims that live in the neighborhood showed up and started building it so now I can work on it too
  • Ooh I’ve had that bug but didn’t think to google it. The bug fix sounds very useful!
