Why does my platform trim not change?

Hello, I was in the middle of building a house and had already raised it, i.e. added a platform and a platform trim.

Then I wanted to add another platform and add a trim as well and this is where it seemed to get buggy or maybe I'm doing something wrong.

I'll attach some pictures so you can hopefully see what I mean (my game is in german but you should still get the gist of it).

When I hover my mouse over the platform it does tell me like normal that I can add the trim and how much it's going to cost me. It's just that the trim doesn't

actually get added as if it''s invisible? I can also suddenly not change my already existing trim by the way.

I hope you get what I mean. I can add further details if needed. 

Many thanks in advance in case someone can help me.

    What I see in your pics is that you are trying to add a platform trim to a foundation which you can't do.  You have to use a foundation trim for that.  Using the wrong trim also explains why you can't change the trim on the rest of the build.  I show the correct location for the foundation trim in the pic below.

    Hope this helps.

  • Oh my, thank you for taking the time to answer my very basic question even though it was just me being stupid.

    And I even called it a bug...

    I apparently just forgot that that option existed and couldn't find it any more.

    Thank you 🙂
