So, you build a beautiful house...

I built and completely furnished a three level house once and somehow completely forgot to put any stairs inside. I only noticed this when sims couldn't reach the various rooms on upper levels. ???? Remodelling the interiors to fit staircases was a pain. ?

There was one time I was off in my own little world I made a family I wanted to play all set up and they had three kids and I forgot a bedroom for the youngest. Ha....

No because I actually plan out my builds (not extensively, but definitely more than necessary :#). But then I fiddle around and change different parts as I play.

My half-hearted planning is below the spoiler.

I have a tendency to forget mailboxes, indoor trashcans and/or outdoor trashcans and smoke alarms.
But I don't think I ever forgot to build an entire room though.

Doors. Sometimes I forget them lol.

Yeah I forget doors! ???.
More often if I change the design of what I’m building halfway through.

And bins too ??‍♂️.

Once I forgot to place a bath/shower upstairs. I built a small bathroom on the ground floor which just had a toilet and sink. I copied the wallpaper and objects to the larger space upstairs but never added a tub/shower ??‍♂️.

I stopped building back doors along time ago. My sims just needs a front door, bedroom doors & bathroom doors.
Also, sometimes I don't even bother giving them two sinks because they constantly want to drink water & do nothing else.
So, boring.

This is a great idea. My builds tend to come together a bit more organically/chaotically than this, but I think I'll try planning :D

Trash cans. I don't know why I can never remember to place trash cans.

Mailbox too.

I keep wondering why the mailbox generates at the front door inside the building.

I don't think I forget, except I get stuck wondering "where the heck am I going to fit this room?"

Like this for example is still a work in progress. (Waiting for a free 64x64 lot to finish the outer wall.) aye, this build went through many transformations in the past three years oi.
But the Main Center Tower is a Master Bedroom/Study, I'm like okay which one of the minor towers is going to be the bathroom?
So the back middle tower became the bathroom.

Sometimes it's good to start with, "Okay what do I want the Main dominating feature of this build to be."
The Tower, and then build that, and expand over time, Maybe add the living room, Dining room, Kitchen, Two bedrooms... Could be three but I wanted to turn the living room into a Great Hall.
