Windows and doors occasionally/often glitch into walls for no reason

I'm having this issue where my windows and doors will become part of the wall and I have to go onto build mode and select, and put back down in the exact same spot they were then it's fine, then another window/door will do the exact same any reason why?? 

I'm not using mods/cc as I'm on console, and build cheats are switched off, proving it's a perfectly fine place to have said window/door without conflicts? 

It also happens to both inside and outdoor doors

    Same here. Clicking the doors/windows in build mode resets them, but it's unclear what causes them to... bleed together with walls (?) in the first place. PS4 here, so no mods, of course.

    Maybe just a console glitch then, it's a tiny thing but so annoying 🤣

    I'm on xbox, and it happens to me as well. Clicking on the door or window in build buy fixes it. I have had a few doors vanish after I leave build buy, and I suspect that its connected to this.

  • I also have this problem sometimes…  I've had this problem for so long that I'm slowly not even noticing it anymore. When this happens to me, all I have to do is go into build mode and fix it. I play on PS4

  • This was a reported bug on AHQ. It had been open for quite a while but was acknowledged by EA and last year they asked for additional info/saves (from PS). So they are aware of it. As part of the bug report players had sent in images of the problem. So since it's been brought to their attention, hopefully it will be addressed. It's affected my game since the start, in fact I had it with Sims 3 too funnily enough. There's nothing really that can be done to prevent it, I've just learned to check doors and windows before leaving build mode and click on them all to restore them before returning to live mode. If I do it as I'm building they'll only disappear again.

    But they are definitely aware and hopefully we supplied enough info to get a fix at some point 🤞.

    I have that too. From the beginning, ever since I play the Sims 4. It would be nice if this could be fixed as it doesn‘t seem to affect PC Players.
    I play on the PS5.
