Can't place doors in existing walls

Support Other Reports
1

Summary:
Placing a door inside a existing wall is not working correctly.
The door is placed, but the wall on this spot is not removed. Nobody can walk through the door.

The building designer makes it also very difficult to place the door inside the wall, not “on” the wall (like a lantern).

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Build a house without doors.
  2. Try to build a door inside a wall (see screenshot)
  3. Placed items inside the house will never placed

Expected Results:
Doors placed after the normal building phase should should remove the wall voxel under them and work correclty as doors.

Actual Results:
The wall and the door are existing at the same voxels. they overlapping and both (door + wall) are visible. The door opens if hearthlings are near, but they can’t walk through.

Notes:
the placement for doors is very “dump”. It is very easy to place doors “on” not “inside” the wall. Visible in the attached screenshot (the right).

Additional: the same happens with windows

This really isn’t a bug. It’s a feature that may or may not be implemented in the future.

as @Averest said, this isn’t actually a bug, just an unimplemented feature, free to make a thread over in #suggestions suggesting the ability to add doors after construction is finished.
