Re: Open floor over stairs deletes them and makes roof enter enclosed room

@mushiem 

I'm glad you found a workaround.  The thing about the fence in the front of the stairs where the stair landing ends up:  The fence has to be there first before you place the stairs.  Otherwise the game won't see the stairwell as a separate room.  So if you are trying to place the fence after the stair is in place, it won't work since the space won't be seen as fully enclosed.  In this particular case, the order in which you do things matters a lot and has to be done in a particular order.  Walls or fence around the opening, delete the floor, change wall to fence on the front, then place the stairs.  The roof does make it a bit more difficult so it's best to place it last so it won't intrude into the stairwell.  

Hope this helps.
