Can’t select some houses/lots
Very strange. Two houses in Willow Creek can’t be selected. It doesn’t matter if I try from the world map or try to move a household. They stay grey when I hold the cursor over the lots. One of them ...

Ha those diamonds are called plumbobs. That seems normal, it sounds a little like you're clicking next to where you want to click.
Could you try playing around and see if that is the case at all? It could be your mouse is just a bit out of whack?
No, it doesn’t matter if I switch to another mouse or use the pad, same problem. The mouse work fine. I tried to post a film clip to show the problem but I didn’t manage to do it.
When I click(or hold the cursor) on the houses (inside the square) nothing happens. On all other lots the square lights up, but not here. When I click on the plumbot (thanks for the name) the plumbot from the house above “come down” and that lot’s square lights up (the wrong ones).
So I can choose those neighbor houses “from two spots”; the real ones and theese “fake ones”. The actual houses on the lots can’t be reached.
You haven’t heard of this problem before?
