@Unforgettable33 I have done a lot of fidgety stuff to get some bi-level openings that I want, and sometimes the efforts near stairs can be even trickier. There are occasionally situations where it just won't work around the stairs in the end. It really depends on a number of factors. I would be happy to try on your build and create a video for you if it works out so you could see how it worked, but I would need to know what you are looking to do, plus have you upload the build to the community gallery so I could download it to use for the demo. Would that be helpful?
Please observe my video above, that displays exactly what I'm trying to do, I never used to have this issue.
I also have a room that isn't classed as a room which means I can't place any flooring down!

@Unforgettable33 In your video I can see that the entire floor deletes, but I am not sure how much of the area you did and did not want to delete. Also, I will need an upload of your build in the gallery. You can just name it something like "stairwell test" and send me the exact name plus your exact gallery id. On the room that the game is not seeing as a room, did you try what I mentioned in #2 above? You could also tell me which room that is for the video and I can have a try at it if that method did not work.

It is called "Tails End - Flooring"
The room which is the issue is the front room on the first floor which was created as an over hanging room
No idea how to get the gallery ID

@Unforgettable33 I have created 2 videos that I hope may be os some help.
- In the first I traced the 'entryway' to make it a complete room in the game, thus creating a roof and floor that is editable per that room. I then deleted the two walls and changed the flooring: https://youtu.be/fKBcdRDT5SM
- In the second video I reduced the opening by one tile row (I am not sure the other one can be removed) and also made an opening above the 2nd floor stairway.
In this video I re-create the opening to get rid of an extra row of tiles over the 2nd floor stairway, plus I then created an opening over the 2nd story stairway.
To build open ceiling staircase/mezzanine:
Build a complete room for the opening. Delete the floor in the room with the sledgehammer tool. Next, delete only one wall, and the floor will be rebuilt. Now delete the floor in the room with the sledgehammer tool a second time. This time it will stay deleted. Now delete walls &/or add railing/fencing as desired to the opening.

I'm not sure if these covered what you wanted to know? Please let me know.
