Title: Ceiling Problem - Fixed Post by: Keyan on 2010 July 07, 17:27:07 Ok so I decided to build this mansion with a trampoline room with a high ceiling. Its difficult to explain but it appears as though the ceiling goes through the wall to the outside then twists itself for no apparent reason. I have tried deleting that whole part of the house, and it still stays there... Is there any way to fix this without bulldozing the lot?
I took some screenshots to show what is happening.

I've deleted that entire section of the house and it stayed there. Also hammer is useless against it. I don't want to bulldoze because of this... Title: Re: Ceiling Problem Post by: jezzer on 2010 July 07, 17:52:51 What exactly did you do to get a high ceiling for your trampoline room? If I want a high ceiling, I just put a room with no floor tiles on the level above.
Title: Re: Ceiling Problem Post by: friendlyquark on 2010 July 07, 18:40:34 Sometimes, especially if you downloaded a house, someone used the floor elevation cheat to get things the way they wanted them to be. Because of that, you end up with exactly this sort of problem. Go into Build mode, get the terrain elevation tool, use the level terrain tool, and run it along the floor you created. That should straighten it out.

I never used the floor elevation cheat but I'll try this anyway.EDIT, I used the floor elevation cheat and flattened much of it however if I put floor over where the ceiling comes out of the building, it auto flattens the ceiling and when I delete the floor tiles it also removes the ceiling. Thank you for the help everyone. Title: Re: Ceiling Problem Post by: Goggalor on 2010 July 07, 19:00:57 To get rid of ceiling that has no floor tiles you have to build new floors on top of them and delete them again, this should get rid of the ceilings as well. To place new floors on the crocked part you will probably need to straighten it out like friendlyquark said, and then build some temporary walls to get the floor grid there.

Title: Re: Ceiling Problem - Fixed Post by: Keyan on 2010 July 08, 02:14:57 Weird part was though was I never used that cheat on that lot... I did however bulldoze the EAxis house that used to be on the lot, I don't know if it was borked then.
