I am still having tremendous problems trying to use platforms. I have no CC anywhere and no mods whatsoever. Here is a description of the problem.

- I am seeing builds where people are using platforms inside rooms, which is something I'd like to do.

- When a place a 6x6 room, and then place a 2x2 platform along one wall, the platforms area is deleted from the room, leaving a 2-panel hole in the wall, and a 2x2 hole in the ceiling.

- The ultimate goal is to have a 6x6 room of medium height, then fill it with a 6x6 platform that is four steps high, leaving short wall height room.

- I have tried this on the first and second floor to no avail.

- I have enabled MOO to no avail.

- Also, if the platform is on the second floor, and I try to adjust its height, it raises the foundation for the entire home.

SOOO! Frustrated.

First, make sure that you're clicking the arrows to raise the platform. Do not try to drag it up like you would with foundation.

Second, I'm not sure why your platforms are disappearing, but if it's just the walls, you can put them back afterwards.

OOF! Thanks. Yes, that was it. I just tested it and it worked, however, I also found that this isn't going to work for my build as you can't use exterior wall patterns on them. (Some of the platforms will not have rooms around them.) Well, I guess I wait.
