Support Bug Reports

#1

Summary:
So ive been seeing a lot of people on youtube building multistory buildings and followed some of the steps they took to do so but unfortunately every time i go to put a roof on my 2 story building the roofing tool crashes.
Steps to reproduce:

  1. build first story as normal…
  2. add stairs and slab to second story
  3. add free standing walls because walling a room doesnt work the way i would like it to
  4. then go to add roof…

Expected Results:
adding a roof
Actual Results:
roof tool crashes

You can’t add roofs to free standing walls. Never have been able to.

You can if the walls are closing a rectangle. (i.e. 4 connected and looped walls)

What you can do is use the second floor tool and draw the floor only where necessary, then raise walls with wall tool. Make the holes for stairs and ladders later to avoid the walls trying to circle the hole instead of the outer borders.
