What the heck? Which stairs are having issues? I haven't noticed this in my game, but I guess I use the same stairs all the time.

"Open stairs", sims can't use any stairs that go to a room without a floor ever since they did the platform update in 10th Nov. For example the stairs in the community lot "Old Quarter Inn" in Windenburg.

5 months have passed and they have not fixed it.

Actually, for this one. (As a builder) It had me confused. The problem wasn't the stairs. After smashing the stairs, at the top it was gated over (walled) but goes invisible when the stairs are there.

The solution was to delete the stairs, then smash the two gate tiles at the top, then rebuild the stairs.

Because of this glitch actually on that building where I first encountered it, (I have encountered it many times since from downloads from the gallery and an occasional pre-built building), I know how to fix it.

I could make a visual explanation. If that would help?

Anyways, gates/walls at the top or bottom can go invisible and block the stairs. The only way to see them and to "smash" them is to remove the stairs first.

Ah, I get this. If you use the fence tool that is automatic, then it creates the fence in front of the stairs that go invisible. So the solution is not to remove the fence on the side of the stairs near the top of the steps, but to move or delete the stairs and then remove the pieces of fence that are in front of the stairs. And the real solution is to build your fences manually instead of with the auto fence. (this is why I have never seen this bug.)

I assume this is also a problem for half walls or any walls used with the auto placement? nevermind. I see where you wrote fences/walls.
