Cannot Delete Individual Floor Tiles
Every time I try to delete an individual floor tile, it deletes the whole room and thus stops me from reflooring it afterwards. The room system appears to be flawed and makes building highly frustrat...

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.
That's brilliant thank you, but there is still that extra line of flooring between the first and second set of stairs, how do you get rid of that?
@Unforgettable33 I'm not sure that you can. It is possible move the top staircase forward one tile, though. But... because the other stairway is directly above it and there is that tile overlap created by the stairway below, there is no way to draw a room below or above that will target that flooring or ceiling in order to delete it... at least not that I can think of.
Hello @SheriGR , Thank you for sharing your YouTube video. It was helpful for me. I was having an issue laying out floor tiles once the old one was removed because the game thought I wasn't clicking within a room or "there was nothing to change". I found a few solutions.
First laying out columns underneath the second floor allowed me to lay a tile on the floor beneath the column.
I tried placing a small square room on top of the second floor which also helped.
And then I reload the save and simply moved the stairs which allowed me to lay out the tiles with no problem then I just moved them back with rails and it removed the tiles where needed for the stairs. Thanks for your help!
@CountDobbula Thanks for sharing your workarounds and for your kind words of encouragement! I'm happy to hear you have successfully made the changes you wanted to in your home. 🙌
