[BH] Some rooms don't have outline/don't allow room type assignment

Having a similar issue.  In fact, the icon is not appearing for me at all on the build I am working on.  I don't know if it's because it's 64 x 64 or the fact that it had already been flagged as residential which was also a strange thing where I could not change it to generic to see if that fixed the problem.  I didn't start with a new save file, just bulldozed that lot, moved the people out and started building.  I will try again tomorrow because it's bedtime but could not just sit on this one without saying something.  EA Gods giveth, EA Gods taketh away.  That's what it feels like 😭 🤣

Same. if I redo the room with the connect the dot walls it will sometimes work again, but periodically goes away

Whenever this happens it seems to be when I am on the second/third etc floor or the basement. Ground floor is normally okay, and I can label that as public. But when it comes to labelling other floors as public or residential, there is no outline on the building, and no option to label it as anything at all. I have no mods or cc installed at all.

thank you!! this worked for me!!

When a unit area is set as public or residential, the selected option disappears. When I go into build buy to set it, there is no outline on the room and I am unable to set an outline. This causes visitors to not go to that room (if a business). Room also has a platform in if this helps.

 Hi Mikeyspoons 

could you post a pic of what you are seeing ?

There's an issue with not all outlines showing here: [BH] Some rooms don't have outline/don't allow room type assignment | EA Forums - 11969303 

Is that your issue ?

I was having this problem too until I read this thread, clearing all the various cache folders and restarting the game fixed it. 😀😀😀

My particular build is exceptionally complex, multiple raised platforms and inside fences, etc, so I don't think the build impacts the issue. In retrospect what I think did it was using a previous build already set up as a business as a starting point is. 😂

Hi crinrict 

Yes, looking at the images on the attached thread, that is the same problem I have experienced. As some of the comments have said, restarting fixes the issues.

I've encountered this many times on various builds. Sometimes the room doesn't have the option to be assigned despite other rooms working fine. I have not determined a cause. You can see this room is outlined in white, which should not be an option on a small business lot.

I have noticed that as well when i am trying to build on a lot for a specific themed build. It will be on for a little bit then go off while in the middle of building.
