Staircase Railing help?

I don't believe there's a way to only delete one side of rail this time, its super annoying.

It's so cringe worthy :neutral:

Delete both railings and then just draw one back on the side that wont underlap the wall

It's both or nothing in TS4, unfortunately they didn't choose to include the option to only have a railing on one side this time around. I'm not sure why.

Sometimes when I make stairs down into pit areas and want a railing on the inside, it automatically puts a railing all the way around the stairs. So there is no way to actually use them. I have not found a solution other than just not having a railing at all. :(

Hello.
I think that this issue has been documented on the builders feedback thread. You may like to check the thread and post about the issue on that thread.

Too bad u cant make a fence along the stairs to only have one

There are so many graphical anomalies in this game, don't get me started. I know OP, it's a super pain. I have a whole laundry list of these sort of building problems that keep me from building things I want to build because of stuff like this right here. I don't like to conform just so I don't have to see something. I don't give high fives to builders who put this stuff on the gallery though their buildings are beautiful and impressive. If I see this sort of stuff or roof overlapping inside I will not favor it etc. I'm a stickler for perfection in games when building something (I don't mean the player building it, but the graphic rules of how it should look and not have these sort of anomalies.

Soooo, I am just building for fun and uhm, there is this issue I have encountered and since building is a learning experience, I tried looking online for a way to delete only 1 side of the railing on a staircase?... Because I don't like this railing overlapping with the fence? So is there a way to avoid this?

Yep, that is really annoying...

There is no remedy for that. I wish the devs would bring this feature back.

Yeah, it works my nerves too. I've just sort of gone ahead and sucked it up so far, though. It still sucks that you have to choose between either no railing at all (which looks awkward and unsafe in 80% of situations) or that weird overlap (which looks awkward 100% of the time). It's basically a no-win situation, visually speaking...-_-; I do hope that they give us the option to only put a railing on one side or, at the very least, have the top of the railing just cut off in any situation where it would overlap that way. Makes you just want to take a hacksaw to it, doesn't it? *eye-twitch*
